Lyrics


The spirit of love
Fills the cosmos
And He who keeps the universe together
Knows every sound

 


The spirit rises
And His enemies disintegrate
And those who hate Him
Flee from His sight

 


Send out your spirit
And life begins to form
And thus

 


Come, spirit, and fill
The hearts of your people
And light in everyone
The fire of your eternal life

 


(English translation of the words spoken in German language)
