Representative Text

1 All that thou hast is the gift of the Lord,
Lent to thee only for life’s fleeting day;
Use the gifts freely to help on His cause,
Hoard not thy treasures in napkins away.

Refrain:
Give, give, cheerfully give,
Willingly, cheerfully give,
Give, give, cheerfully give,
As the Lord giveth thee, give.

2 Thousands in heathen lands perish each day,
Having not heard of the dear Saviour’s love;
What art thou doing the dying to save?
Give as is given to thee from above.

3 Is there a brother or sister in need?
Close not thy heart to the pitiful plea;
Reach out a helping hand in His dear name,
Give as the Master has given to thee.
