Tune: St Peter
('How sweet the name of Jesus sounds')
2 Corinthians 9 v.6-7
**********
Paul says, They who sow sparingly
Still reap sparingly, see
And they which sow bountifully
Shall reap bountifully
Each one according as the ydo
Purpose, let them act too
As purposed in their hearts, so let
Them give even, fair yet
But not to so give grudgingly
Nor of necessity
Not feel compelled, or must, or ought
But give from heart's true thought
For God loves a giver cheerful
Whose motives are joyful
Who do His true example show
Of His love and grace know

- Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 6.6.8.6. metre. a couple of poems left in this series. some at a friend's church may be 'grudging' (verse 3). Can ya help? They need a cool million. Pop cheques in the post to me, and I will pass them on! It's the 'they' (some leaders) who decide that a church building will be extended or even rebuilt.
