| Text: | Give in Faith |
1 Cast thy bread upon the waters,
Thinking not 'tis thrown away;
God himself saith thou shalt gather
It again some future day.
Cast thy bread upon the waters,
Wildly though the billows roll;
They but aid thee as thou toilest
Truth to spread from pole to pole.
2 Cast thy bread upon the waters;
Why wilt thou still doubting stand?
Bounteous shall God send the harvest,
If thou sow'st with liberal hand.
Give, then, freely of thy substance--
O'er this cause the Lord doth reign;
Cast thy bread, and toil with patience,
Thou shalt labor not in vain.
