It only takes a spark to get a fire going,
And soon all those around can warm up in its glowing;
That's how it is with God's love,
once you've experienced it:
You spread His love to everyone,
you want to pass it on.
What a wondrous time is spring
when all the trees are budding,
The birds begin to sing,
the flowers start their blooming;
That's how it is with God's love,
once you've experienced it:
You want to sing,
it's fresh like spring,
you want to pass it on.
I wish for you, my friend,
this happiness that I've found
You can depend on Him,
it matters not where you're bound;
I'll shout it from the mountain top,
I want my world to know:
The Lord of love has come to me,
I want to pass it on.
