1. O God, in Whom we live and move, Thy love is law, Thy law is love;
Thy present Spirit waits to fill
The soul which comes to do Thy will.
Unto our waiting spirits teach
Thy love beyond the pow’r of speech;
And make them know with joyful awe
Th’encircling presence of Thy law.
1-3
Words by Samuel Longfellow / Music by Johann Herman Schein

2. That law doth give to truth and right,
O God, In Whom We Live And Move
That law doth give to truth and right,
Howe’er despised, a conquering might,
And makes each, fondly worshiped lie
And boasting wrong to cow’r and die.
Its patient working doth fulfill
Man’s hope, and God’s all perfect will,
Nor suffers one true word or thought
Or deed of love to come to naught.
2-3

3. Such faith, O God, our spirits fill,
O God, In Whom We Live And Move
Such faith, O God, our spirits fill,
That we may work in patience still;
Who works for justice, works with Thee;
Who works in love, Thy child shall be.
Amen.
3-3
