The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book ‎#1223

1223. Open the windows of heav'n, O Lord

1 Open the windows of heav'n,
Here are my tithes for thee:
Sure is the promise contained in thy word;
Pour out a rich blessing on me.

Chorus:
Open the windows of heaven for me,
Open the windows of heaven for me;
Open, O Lord, open, O Lord,
The windows of heaven for me.

2 All that I have I would hold as thine,
Lent in thy love so free;
Add to these blessings thy presence divine,
The dearest of all gifts to me. [Chorus]

3 Thus would I prove thee, in faith, O Lord;
Bringing my tithe of all;
Thus would receive a far richer reward
Of heavenly blessings that fall. [Chorus]
