440 A Proper Spiritual Life Must Always Be Upheld
Intro
In God’s work, no matter what He does or changes,
at the least people must maintain a normal spiritual life.
Verse 1
Perhaps you’ve not been idle in your spiritual life,
but still haven’t gained nor reaped a great deal;
still you must follow the rules to avoid losses
in your life and satisfy God’s will.
Chorus
If your spiritual life is not normal,
then you can’t understand God’s work,
it will differ from your notions; lacking drive to follow Him.
No matter what God does, people must obey,
or the work of the Holy Spirit cannot be attained.
Yes, the work of the Holy Spirit cannot be attained.
Verse 2
If you want to have the work of the Holy Spirit in you,
if you want to gain the approval of God,
you must maintain your original devotion.
Higher theory is not required,
all that’s needed is to uphold God’s word on your foundation.
Chorus
If your spiritual life is not normal,
then you can’t understand God’s work,
it will differ from your notions; lacking drive to follow Him.
No matter what God does, people must obey,
or the work of the Holy Spirit cannot be attained.
Yes, the work of the Holy Spirit cannot be attained.
Bridge
If people don’t cooperate, refuse to enter further,
He will take all that they once had.
Man prefers the easy road to gain God’s promises with ease.
The lavish thoughts of man.
Who has gained life without paying a price?
Verse 3
When someone believes in God, seeks to enter in,
enter life and change their disposition,
they must pay a price, follow God no matter what He does.
This is something all must do.
Even if you follow as a rule, you must stick to it.
Chorus
If your spiritual life is not normal,
then you can’t understand God’s work,
it will differ from your notions; lacking drive to follow Him.
No matter what God does, people must obey,
or the work of the Holy Spirit cannot be attained.
Yes, the work of the Holy Spirit cannot be attained.
Outro
You can’t let go of your normal relationship with God,
you should pray, maintain your church life,
no matter how great the trials.
Stay with your brothers and sisters.
When God tries you, you should still seek truth.
This is just the minimum for a spiritual life.
