Author: William Walsham How Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #185 (2018) Refrain First Line: S.M. 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 thus
as 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--
it is a Christlike 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. Topics: Giving and Stewardship Scripture: 1 Chronicles 29:14 Languages: English Tune Title: SCHUMANN
