Spirit And Song

orchidee



Tune: Little Cornard

('Hills of the north, rejoice')

Ephesians 5 v.16-20

*********

Be not with wine drunken

Come, children, women, men

But be with the Spirit

Filled, by Him your lives lit

Redeem the time, days are evil

So let your light be shining still

 

Among yourselves speak, sing

Psalms and hymns to God bring

And spiritual songs, sing

Of His grace, each good thing

And make melody in your heart

To the Lord, come now, take your part

 

Be not unwise, but do

Understand what the true

Will of the Lord is, so

Daily progress shall know

Give thanks always for all things to

God and his Son Jesus anew

    This is a slower pace version of the hymn. There's one where they sing at about 500mph. Apparently the fast version is the correct speed.
