67. I shall not pass

1 The bread that giveht strength I want to give;
The water pure that bids the thirsty live;
I want to help the fainting day be day;
I'm sure I shall not pass again this way.

Refrain:
I want to give to others hope and faith;
I want to do all that the Master saith;
I want to do the right from day to day;
I'm sure I shall not pass again this way.

2 I want to give the oil of joy for tears;
I want a faith to conquer all my fears;
Goodness for ashes may I give alway;
I'm sure I shall not pass again this way. [Refrain]

3 I want to give good measure running o'er,
And into angry hearts I want to pour
The answer soft that runet wrath away;
I'm sure I shall not pass again this way. [Refrain]
