Christ of self denial who for help dost call

Christ of self denial who for help dost call

Author: William J. Pearson
Published in 3 hymnals


Representative Text

1 Christ of self-denial
Who for help dost call,
We have given little,
Thou hast given all;
Offerings and thanksgivings
Thou wilt not despise;
While our best we bring thee,
Bless our sacrifice.

2 Having food and clothing,
We will be content,
Thou hast needful blessings
In abundance sent;
Freely by thy bounty
Thou dost let us live,
More and more receiving,
More and more to give.

3 From thy thankful people,
From each grateful home,
As thy hand hath given,
To thy hand shall come;
Love for help is seeking,
Knocking at each door,
All thy children gladly
Give thee more and more.
