388. O Fount of Good, to Own Thy Love

1 O Fount of good, to own Thy love
Our thankful hearts incline;
What can we render, Lord, to Thee,
When all the worlds are Thine?

2 But Thou hast needy brethren here,
Partakers of Thy grace,
Whose humble names Thou wilt confess
Before Thy Father's face.

3 In their sad accents of distress
Thy pleading voice is heard;
In them Thou may'st be clothed and fed,
And visited, and cheered.

4 Then help us, Lord, Thy yoke to wear,
And joy to do Thy will,
Each other's burdens gladly bear,
And love's sweet law fulfill.

5 To Thee our all devoted be,
In whom we move and live;
Freely we have received of Thee,
As freely may we give.

Amen.
