Cast thy Bread upon the Waters

Hymnal: The Ark of Praise #87 (1882) First Line: Cast thy bread upon the waters ye who have but scant supply Lyrics: 1 Cast thy bread upon the waters, Ye who have but scant supply; Angel eyes will watch above it;— You shall find it by and by, He who in his righteous balance Doth each human action weigh Will your sacrifice remember, Will your loving deeds repay. 2 Cast thy bread upon the waters, Poor and weary, worn with care;— Often sitting in the shadow,— Have you not a crumb to spare? Can you not to those around you Sing some little song of hope, As you look with longing vision Thro’ faith’s mighty telescope? 3 Cast thy bread upon the waters, Ye who have abundant store; It may float on many a billow, It may strand on many a shore. You may think it lost forever, But as sure as God is true, In this life or in the other, It will yet return to you. 4 Cast thy bread upon the waters, Far and wide your treasures strew, Scatter it with willing fingers, Laugh for joy to see it go! For if you do closely keep it, It will only drag you down; If you love it more than Jesus, It will keep you from your crown. 5 Cast thy bread upon the waters, Waft it on with praying breath, In some distant, doubtful moment It may save a soul from death; When you sleep in solemn silence, ‘Neath the morn and evening dew, Stranger hands, which you have strengthened, May strew lilies over you.
