Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #385 (1917) Lyrics: 1 O Lord of heaven and earth and sea,
To Thee all praise and glory be;
How shall we show our love to Thee,
Who givest all?
2 The golden sunshine, vernal air,
Sweet flowers and fruits Thy love declare,
Where harvests ripen, Thou art there,
Who givest all.
3 For peaceful homes, and healthful days,
For all the blessings earth displays,
We owe Thee thankfulness and praise,
Who givest all.
4 Thou didst not spare Thine only Son,
But gav’st Him for a world undone,
And freely with that blessèd One,
Thou givest all.
5 Thou giv’st the Holy Spirit’s dower,
Spirit of life and love and power,
And dost His sevenfold graces shower
Upon us all.
6 For souls redeemed, for sins forgiven,
For means of grace and hopes of heaven,
Father, all praise to Thee be given,
Who givest all?
7 We lose what on ourselves we spend;
We have as treasure without end
Whatever, Lord, to Thee we lend,
Who givest all.
8 To Thee, from Whom we all derive
Our life, our gifts, our power to give,
O may we ever with Thee live,
Who givest all.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Christian Service Languages: English Tune Title: ALMSGIVING
