Readiness In Giving - Giving Series (5)

orchidee



Tune: Dove of Peace

('I come with joy to meet my Lord')

2 Corinthians 9 v.1-5 parts

*********

Paul says to the Corinthians

concerning their giving

Helping other churches, they do

Already give, he knew

 

He did know sure their willing mind

Generous did them find

Spoke of them well to those that be

In North and South Greece, see

 

They were ready a year ago

To make their giving, so

Now time to send their offering

To Jerusalem bring

 

That it should be bounty ready

When Paul should arrive, see

Ready, of generosity

And not of grudging be

 

So Paul and friends that offering

To the church they would bring

In Jerusalem, needy there

In blessings they did share
