God's glorious substance Spirit is,

God's glorious substance Spirit is, His essence, holy and divine; To contact God and Him enjoy, His Spirit I must touch with mine.

The spirit is the innermost, The part of man most deep and real; If he would contact God in life, ' Tis with the spirit he must deal.

The worship which the Father seeks Is in the spirit's strength alone; His Spirit into man's would come, That His and man's may thus be one.

When Spirit unto spirit calls The two commingle and are one; Man's spirit is the Spirit's home, The Spirit doth man's life become.

Man's spirit must God's Spirit touch If in God's fulness he would live; ' Tis only with the spirit thus That he to God may worship give.

In ministry and fellowship Man to the spirit we must bring; All ministry should turn to prayer, Spirit to spirit answering.

In spirit we must pray and serve, In spirit touch the life divine, In spirit grow, in spirit build, That Christ thru us may fully shine.

Lord, to the spirit I would turn And learn to truly contact Thee; Thy Spirit thus will flow with mine And overflow eternally.
