O Lord of heaven and earth and sea

Meter: 8.8.4

Scripture: 1 Chr. 29:14

1

O Lord of heaven and earth and sea,

To Thee all praise and glory be;

How shall we show our love to Thee,

Giver of all!

2

The golden sunshine, vernal air,

Sweet flow’rs and fruits, Thy love declare

Where harvests ripen, Thou art there

Giver of all!

3

For peaceful homes and beautiful days,

For all the blessings, earth displays,

We owe Thee thankfulness and praise

Giver of all!

4

Thou didst not spare Thine only son,

But gav’st Him for a world undone,

And freely with that Blessed One,

Thou givest all!

5

Thou giv’st the Holy Sprits dow’r

Spirit of life, and love, and pow’r

And dost His sev’n fold graces show'r

Upon us all.

6

For souls redeemed, for sins forgiv'n,

For means of grace, and hopes of Heav’n,

Father, what can to Thee be giv'n,

Who givest all?

7

We lose what on ourselves we spend:

We have as treasure without end

Whatever Lord, to Thee we lend,

Who givest all!

8

Whatever, Lord we lend to Thee

Repaid a thousand fold will be,

Then gladly will we give to Thee

Giver of all!

9

To Thee, from, Whom we all derive

Our life, our gifts, our pow'r to give

Oh, may we ever with Thee live,

Giver of all!
