We give Thee but Thine own

Author: William W. How Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 505 hymnals Topics: Liberality 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 O hearts are bruised and dead, And homes are bare and cold, And lambs, for whom the Shepherd bled Are straying from the fold! 4 To comfort and to bless, To find a balm for woe, To tend the lone and fatherless, Is angels' work below. 5 The captive to release, The lost to God to bring, To teach the way of life and peace-- It is a Christ-like thing. 6 And we believe Thy word, Though dim our faith may be; Whate'er we do for Thine, O Lord, We do it unto Thee. Amen. Used With Tune: HAYDN

Praise the One who breaks the darkness

Author: Rusty Edwards (b. 1955) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 19 hymnals Topics: Freedom and Liberation Lyrics: 1 Praise the One who breaks the darkness with a liberating light. Praise the One who frees the prisoners turning blindness into sight. Praise the One who preached the gospel, curing every dread disease, calming storms and feeding thousands with the very bread of peace. 2 Praise the One who blessed the children with a strong yet gentle word. Praise the One who drove out demons with a piercing, two-edged sword. Praise the One who brings cool water to the desert's burning sand; from this well comes living water, quenching thirst in every land. 3 Praise the one true love incarnate, Christ, who suffered in our place. Jesus died and rose for many that we may know God by grace. Let us sing for joy and gladness, seeing what our God has done. Praise the one redeeming glory. Praise the One who makes us one. Scripture: Mark 5:1-15 Used With Tune: NETTLETON
