Author: William W. How Appears in 489 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We give Thee but Thine own,Whate'er the gift may be:All that we have is Thine alone,A trust, O Lord, from Thee.2 May we Thy bounties thusAs stewards true receive,And gladly, as Thou blessest us,To Thee our first-fruits give.3 To comfort and to bless,To find a balm for woe,To tend the lone and fatherless,Is angels' work below.4 The captive to release,To God the lost to bring,To teach the way of life and peace,That is a Christ-like thing.5 And we believe Thy word,Though dim our faith may be,Whate'er for Thine we do, O Lord,We do it unto Thee.Amen.
