How Much Owest Thou?

1 How much owest thou to the Father above,
For care never failing, for wonderful love?
For sunbeams that steal thro’ the cloud’s silver rift,
For Jesus our Lord, His unspeakable gift?

Chorus:
How much owest thou?
How much owest thou?
For all His rich mercies
How much owest thou?

2 How much owest thou? canst thou reckon them up,
The bright drops of blessings o’erflowing thy cup?
The tokens that hallow each moment anew,
Like rain in the grass, like the fresh morning dew. [Chorus]

3 How much owest thou for the sweet, winning grace
That woos us to rest in the Saviour’s embrace?
For songs in the night, loving kindness by day,
And flow’rs that are springing to gladden thy way? [Chorus]

4 How much owest thou? we can never repay
The love that hath guarded and guided our way;
Ourselves let us bring with surrender complete,
Our hearts and our service lay down at His feet. [Chorus]
