The Spirit Gives Life
To God be all glory for His great gift
Passing by Moses hidden in the rift
Giving grace to the faithful, not the swift
The letter kills, but the Spirit gives life*
Compassion is at the heart of God’s name
Jesus our Savior endured all the blame
Washing away our transgressions and shame
The letter kills, but the Spirit gives life*
The Law was given to show us our sin
Our need for a savior living within
When Jesus we trust new life will begin
The letter kills, but the Spirit gives life*
God’s new covenant does complete the old
Jesus fulfilled all the Law we are told
Fast to this promise His people must hold
The letter kills, but the Spirit gives life*
*2 Corinthians 3:6b
