Author: Frank L. Cross, 1904-2001 Hymnal: Christian Worship #751 (2021) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 O God, your hand the heavens made
and all that they contain;
the world appeared at your command,
and in it now you reign.
The restless sea, the land, the sky
your handiwork declare;
the touch of your creative pow'r
is present ev'rywhere.
2 To us are given gifts divine,
all talents you have sent;
inspire us now to use them well
your kingdom to extend.
We hold each gift a trust from you
nor claim it as our own;
we gratefully acknowledge, Lord,
all things are yours alone.
3 Deliver us from selfish aims,
true stewards we would be;
endow us with a deep desire
to live unselfishly.
A full accounting we must give
and see you face to face;
let us approach your throne with joy,
supported by your grace. Topics: Stewardship Scripture: Psalm 19:1 Languages: English Tune Title: KINGSFOLD
