7 We lose what on ourselves we spend, 8 Whatever, Lord, we lend to Thee, 9 To Thee, from Whom we all derive 423 66 1 2 Giver of all. Amen. As every man hath received the gift, even WE give Thee but Thine own, All that we have is Thine alone, Oh! hearts are bruised and dead, And lambs, for whom the Shepherd bled, Are straying from the fold. The captive to release, To God the lost to bring, To teach the way of life and peace, It is a Christ-like thing. 5 And we believe Thy word, Though dim our faith may be; 424 "Whoso shall receive one such little child in My Name receiveth Me." 1 GREAT God! in heaven and earth supreme, 2 O Fount of love! all-gracious God! 3 Thy face with reverence and with love We minister, O Lord, to Thee. 4 On these, on all, Thy grace bestow, The contrite heart, the lowly mind; Amen. 425 "Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.' 1 THROUGH Him Who all our sickness felt, Who all our sorrows bare, Through Him in Whom Thy fulness dwelt, 2 Help us to help each other, Lord, 3 Help us to build each other up, Increase our faith, confirm our hope, 4 Complete at length Thy work of grace, Among the saints who see Thy face Amen. For Hospitals. 426 "They brought unto Him all that were diseased." 1 THINE arm, O Lord, in days of old It triumphed o'er disease and death, To Thee they went, the blind, the dumb, The sick with fevered frame. 2 And lo! Thy touch brought life and health, In crowded street, by restless couch, 3 Be Thou our great Deliverer still, That whole and sick, and weak and strong, Amen. Seed-time and Harvest. 427 "The eyes of all wait upon Thee, O Lord; and Thou givest them their meat in due season. 1 LORD, in Thy Name Thy servants plead, 2 Our hope, when autumn winds blew wild, 3 The former and the latter rain, The green ear, and the golden grain, 4 Thine too by right, and ours by grace, The hopes that soothe, the fears that brace, The love that shines serene. 5 So grant the precious things brought forth By sun and moon below, That Thee in Thy new heaven and earth 428 "The Lord is good to all, and His tender mercies are over all His works." PSALM LXV. 1 GOOD is the Lord, our heavenly King, 2 Good is the Lord, Whose liberal hand To scatter plenty through the land, 3 Good is the Lord! It is His love [4 Good is the Lord! His love should raise Say "He is good!" and let His praise 5 Good is the Lord! He gives us bread; By Him their souls with grace are fed, *For Harvest. Amen. |
