	LOVE AND GRATITUDE



	2 The golden sunshine, vernal air, Sweet flowers and fruit Thy love declare; When harvests ripen, Thou art there, Who givest all. 3 For peaceful homes, and healthful days, For all the blessings earth displays, We owe Thee thankfulness and praise, Who givest all.	5 Thou giv'st the Spirit's holy dower, Spirit of life, and love, and power, And dost His sevenfold graces shower Upon us all. 6 For souls redeemed, for sins forgiven, For means of grace and hopes of heaven, What can to Thee, O Lord, be given, Who givest all?

	4 Thou didst not spare Thine only Son, But gav'st Him for a world undone, And freely with that blessld one Thou givest all.	7 To Thee, from Whom we all derive Our life, our gifts, our power to give; Oh, may we ever with Thee live, Who givest all!

	Bishop Christopher Wordsworth. 1872 343



	2 To Him the Lamb, our sacrifice, 4 To Him Who now for us doth plead, Who gave His soul our ransom-price, And helpeth us in all our need, Sing we Alleluia! Sing we Alleluia! 3 To Him Who rose that we might rise, 5 To Him Who doth prepare on high And reign with Him beyond the skies, Our home in immortality, Sing we Alleluia! Sing we Alleluia! 6 To Him be glory evermore; Ye heavenly hosts, your Lord adore; Sing ye Alleluia! Rev. Arthur T. Russell, 1851
