We Give Thee But Thine Own
We Give Thee But Thine Own
1. We give thee but thine own,
Whate’er the gift may be.
All that we have is thine alone,
A trust, O Lord, from thee.
2. May we thy bounties thus
As stewards true receive,
And gladly, as thou blessest us,
To thee our first-fruits give.
3. To comfort and to bless,
To find a balm for woe,
To tend the lone and fatherless
Is angels’ work below.
4. And we believe thy word,
Though dim our faith may be.
Whate’er for thine we do, O Lord,
We do it unto thee.
