WHEN GOD DIPS HIS LOVE IN MY HEART


[D] When God dips His pen of [G] love in my [D] heart
And writes my soul a message, He [E7] wants me to [A7] know
His Spir-[D] it, all divine, fills this sin-[G] ful soul of [D] mine
When God Dips His [A7] Love In My [D] Heart.

[P] Well, I said I wouldn't [D] tell it to a livin' soul
How He brought [G] salvation, when He made me [D] whole
But I found I couldn't hide such love as Jesus did im-[A7] part
'Cause it makes me [D] laugh and it makes me cry
Sets my sin-[G] ful soul on [D] fire
When God Dips His [A7] Love In My [D] Heart.

Sometimes, tho' the way, is dreary, dark and cold
And some unburdened sorrow, keeps me from the goal
I go with God in prayer, I can always find Him there
To whisper, sweet peace, to my soul.

CHORUS

He walked ev'ry step, up Calvary's rugged way
To give His life completely and bring a better day
My life was deep in sin, but in love, He took me in
His blood washed away ev'ry stain.

CHORUS
