Spelling Love

Author: Lucia B. Cook Hymnal: Awakening Songs for the Church, Sunday School and Evangelistic Services #160 (1917) First Line: When love is spelt with letters Refrain First Line: L-O-V-E, that spells love Lyrics: 1 When love is spelt with letters, It is not hard to spell, But let us try to write it, In living deeds as well; When called to do an errand, Be sure you don’t demur; For when you mind your mother, You’re spelling love to her. Refrain: L-O-V-E, that spells love, Sweetest word in heav’n above; Sweetest word on earth below, Let’s keep spelling as we go. 2 If kind to all your classmates, Obedient to the rule, If studious and thoughtful, You’re spelling love at school; When teacher says, “Be quiet,” Be sure you do not stir; For when we please the teacher, We’re spelling love to her. [Refrain] 3 Each little deed of kindness, That we may strive to do, Is spelling love for others, And love for Jesus, too; I hope, if holy angels Look on us from above, In bright and shining letters, They’ll find us spelling “love.” [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [When love is spelt with letters]
