Tune: Penlan

('In heavenly love abiding')

2 Corinthians 9 v.8-15

**********

Paul says, God is able to

Make all grace unto you

To abound, that you always

All sufficient all days

Do have in all things, and so

Abound in each work do

Your goodness in your giving

Love, part of your sharing

 

As is written, as are you

These Scriptures noted true

That you have dispersed abroad

Graciously through your Lord

You have given to the poor

Helped them through troubles sore

Your righteousness now remains

Ever, no selfish stains

 

Now He that gives seed unto

Sower, supply to you

Bread for your food, multiply

Your seed sown by and by

And increase the fruits of your

Righteousness evermore

Thus you are blessed in giving

To help needy living

 

You enriched in everything

To all bounty, we bring

Thanks to God for your service

You liberal in this

For it supplies needs of poor

And abounds oo for sure

As many thanks are offered

To God for gifts assured

 

While they who do your service

Experience, see this

They glorify God for your

Professed subjection sure

Unto the gospel of Christ

Your gifts have them sufficed

Thanks too for your free sharing

With all whom help you bring

 

As so their prayer is for you

And gratefulness they do

Express, they appreciate

Your loving, caring state

Recognise the exceeding

Grace of God in you, sing

Praise for gift unspeakable

You obey service-call
