You can have your earthly treasures
Your silver and your gold
You can live a life of pleasure
Like a tale that’s been told

You can have flesh without measure
From your birth till your old
But it’s the spirit it’s the spirit
That can never yet be sold

It’s the spirit it’s the spirit
It’s the spirit wild and free
Spirit It’s the spirit
It’s the spirit that’s the life for me

You can travel in the spirit
From the moon to distant mars
You can travel by the spirit
Hitch your wagon to the stars

You can travel in the spirit
So much faster than in cars
It’s the spirit, it’s the spirit
That keeps breaking all your jars

God’s Holy Spirit is like a lovely tree
So come on my dears and darlings
Climb up it with me

You can live a life in spirit
In a world that’s always free
A life in spirit that’s not
Bound by land or sea
