\nGod, whose giving knows no ending,
\nFrom Your rich and endless store:
\nNature’s wonder, Jesus’ wisdom,
\nCostly cross, grave’s shattered door.
\nGifted by You, we turn to You,
\nOff’ring up ourselves in praise:
\nThankful song shall rise forever,
\nGracious donor of our days.<\/p>\n

\nSkills and time are ours for pressing
\nToward the goals of Christ, Your Son:
\nAll at peace in health and freedom,
\nRaces joined, the church made one.
\nNow direct our daily labor,
\nLest we strive for self alone:<\/p>\n
Born with talents, make us servants
\nFit to answer at Your throne.<\/p>\n

\nTreasure, too, You have entrusted,
\nGain through pow’rs Your grace conferred:
\nOurs to use for home and kindred,
\nAnd to spread the Gospel Word.
\nOpen wide our hands in sharing,
\nAs we heed Christ’s ageless call.
\nHealing, teaching, and reclaiming,
\nServing You by loving all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
