163. Penny Song

1 Sweetly singing, off’rings bringing,
For the Lord of all;
Every penny helps the many,
Tho’ alone so small.

Refrain:
Tinkling, tinkling, in a twinkling
Down the pennies fall;
Freely given God in heaven,
He will bless them all.

2 Old ones, new ones, bright ones, true one,
What a nice array;
All for Jesus, he who sees us,
Knows our hearts today. [Refrain]

3 Righteous living, cheerful giving,
Make our spirits blest;
Bringing favor from the Savior,
Which of all is best. [Refrain]
