SUBSTANCE lyrics
Words by Carolyn Kardinal
Music by Carolyn Kardinal
Faith and hope, joy, health and harmony
Are the substance of Spirit God gives to you and me
Like the lilies blooming in the field, that grow effortlessly.
There are seeds that root in the grateful heart that grow unlimited, free.
Their fruits abound at harvest, abundant as all can see.
They are the substance of Spirit which bless humanity.
Substance is the evidence of God’s unchanging Love,
The fruit-filled harvest overflowing from above.
So the grateful man can’t be deprived of everything he needs
When he has a selfless, giving heart that grows Love’s precious seed.
True wealth is being satisfied with the beauty of spiritual things,
Seeing the tiniest blessings each moment of each day brings.
We grow our spiritual fortune from seeds of generosity
By giving with joy to our fellow man and loving unconditionally.
If we lay not up treasures on the earth, but value spiritual things
Like selflessness and charity, and the joy that giving brings,
Then we’ll always have all we need and never have to strive,
For God loves a cheerful giver, and man cannot be deprived.
Substance is the evidence of God’s unchanging Love,
The fruit-filled harvest overflowing from above.
So the grateful man can’t be deprived of everything he needs
When he has a selfless, giving heart that grows Love’s precious seed.
