Because I Have Been Given Much
I thank Thee, Lord, for strength of arm
Author: Rev. Robert Davis Meter: 8.4.8.4.8.8 Appears in 28 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I thank Thee, Lord, for strength of arm
To win my bread,
And that, beyond my need, is meat
For friend unfed:
I thank Thee much for bread to live;
I thank Thee more for bread to give.
2 I thank Thee, Lord, for snug-thatched roof
In cold and storm,
And that, beyond my need, is room
For friend forlorn:
I thank Thee much for place to rest,
But more for shelter for my guest.
3 I thank Thee, Lord, for lavish love
On me bestowed,
Enough to share with loveless folk
To ease their load:
Thy love to me I ill could spare,
Yet dearer is Thy love I share.
Amen. Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Stewardship; Stewardship Used With Tune: O JESU
I thank Thee, Lord, for strength of arm
