Text: by composer

Spit-it of Love,
Teach us to give,
Come and walk be-side us
Show us how to live.

Spir-it be good,
Spir-it be kind,
Show us some for-give-ness,
Bring us peace of mind.

Life is full of dan-ger
Met at eve’ry turn.
Fill us with com-pas-sion,
Grant us time to learn.

Spit-it of Love,
Teach us to give,
Come and walk be-side us
Show us how to live.

Show us how to love.
