WHEN GOD DIPS HIS LOVE IN MY HEART

(Cleavant Derricks - W.S. Stevenson)

When God dips his pen of love in my heart

And writes my soul a message he wants me to know

His spirit all divine fills this sinful soul of mine

When God dips his love in my heart

Well I said I wouldn't tell it to a living soul

How he brought salvation when he made me whole

But I found I couldn't hide such love as Jesus did impart

Well it makes me laugh it makes me cry sets my sinful soul on fire

When God dips his love in my heart

Sometimes though the way is dreary dark and cold

And some unburdened sorrow keeps me from the goal

I go to God in prayer I can always find him there

To whisper sweet peace to my soul

Well I said I wouldn't tell it...

He walked every step up calvary's ragged way

To give his life completely and bring a better day

My life was steeped and sinned but in love he took me in

His blood washed away every stain

Well I said I wouldn't tell it...

When God dips his love in my heart
