| Thou art the Word and Spirit, Lord;

|  | 1. | Thou art the Word and Spirit, Lord; | 
|  |  | Now in one spirit worship we; | 
|  |  | 'Tis by the Word we understand, | 
|  |  | And in the Spirit contact Thee. | 
|  | 2. | Since Thou with me has joined in one, | 
|  |  | Thou art my all, O Lord, thereby; | 
|  |  | And as the Spirit and the Word | 
|  |  | Thou cam'st to me as my supply. | 
|  | 3. | If Thou are Lord, yet not the Word, | 
|  |  | How couldest Thou be know to me? | 
|  |  | If Thou art God yet Spirit not, | 
|  |  | How could I ever contact Thee? | 
|  | 4. | The Word reveals Thyself to me | 
|  |  | And knowledge of Thyself imparts; | 
|  |  | The Spirit is Thy substance true | 
|  |  | Whereby I touch Thee as Thou art. | 
|  | 5. | Thou art my life, my light, my way, | 
|  |  | My food, my strength and guaranty; | 
|  |  | By Word made known, as Spirit these | 
|  |  | Become experience to me. | 
|  | 6. | The Word in Scripture is expressed, | 
|  |  | Thy Spirit, the Indwelling One; | 
|  |  | Thy Word is spirit and is life | 
|  |  | When to my spirit it doth come. | 
|  | 7. | If I Thy Word would understand, | 
|  |  | I must Thy Holy Spirit touch; | 
|  |  | Not only grasp it with my mind, | 
|  |  | But with my spirit it doth come. | 
|  | 8. | Thy precious Word my heart doth love, | 
|  |  | My spirit fellowships with Thine; | 
|  |  | My heart rejoices in Thy Word, | 
|  |  | My spirit praises sings in Thine. |
