Author: D. K. P. Hymnal: Christ in Song #581 (1908) Hymnal Title: Christ in Song Refrain First Line: "Love one another," Thus saith the Saviour Lyrics: 1 Angry words! oh, let them never
From the tongue unbridled slip;
May the heart's best impulse ever
Check them e'er they soil the lip.
Chorus:
"Love one another," Thus saith the Saviour,
Children, obey the Father's blest command:
"Love one another," Thus saith the Saviour,
Children, obey his blest command.
2 Love is much too pure and holy,
Friendship is too sacred far,
For a moment's reckless folly
Thus to desolate and mar. [Chorus]
3 Angry words are lightly spoken;
Bitt'rest tho'ts are rashly stirred
Brightest links of life are broken,
By a single angry word. [Chorus] Topics: Living His Life Kind Words; Special Selections Duets Languages: English Tune Title: [Angry words! oh, let them never]
