It Only Takes a Spark

##

   C              Em      F          G
It only takes a spark to get a fire going,
     C               Em        F               G
And soon all those around can warm up in its glowing;
        F              C         F        G        C        Am
That’s how it is with God’s love,   once you’ve experienced it:
       F               C/G            F       G      C
You spread His love to ev’ryone, you want to pass it on.

        C                  Em       F                  G
What a wondrous time is spring when all the trees are budding,
    C               Em         F                   G
The birds begin to sing, the flowers start their blooming;
        F              C         F        G        C        Am
That’s how it is with God’s love,   once you’ve experienced it:
     F                   C/G                   F       G      C
You want to sing, it’s fresh-like spring, you want to pass it on.

   C                 Em          F             G
I wish for you, my friend, this happiness that I’ve found.
     C             Em      F                 G
You can depend on Him, it matters not where you’re bound;
       F                C           F     G       C         Am
I’ll shout it from the mountain top,   I want my world to know;
     F                C/G           F       G      C
The Lord of love has come to me, I want to pass it on.
