EN 5588 Thine Are All the Gifts, O God
Jas.1.17
Versi Version 1
1
Thine are all the gifts, O God,
Thine the broken bread;
Let the naked feet be shod
And the starving fed.
2
Let Thy children, by Thy grace,
Give as they abound,
Till the poor have breathing-space,
And the lost are found.
3
Wiser than the miser’s hoards
Is the giver’s choice;
Sweeter than the song of birds
Is the thankful voice;
4
Welcome smiles on faces sad
As the flowers of spring:
Let the tender hearts be glad
With the joy they bring.
5
Happier for their pity’s sake
Make their sports and plays,
And from the lips of childhood take
Thy perfected praise.
