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.
