Though the rich gave money in large sums; With all she has the widow comes; Her life may be among the slums; Where greatest feasts are only crumbs; But she gave more than all large sums; Our Lord takes note – in faith she comes!
It's not what we give, but what we keep; And what we sow is what we'll reap; For our great God is not so cheap; He gave His Son – His love is deep; And for lost sinners He did weep; He came to save all His lost sheep; And for them work – He'll never sleep; He gave His all, nothing He'd keep; And now eternal life we reap!
It's more blessed to give than to receive; Oh Father! Help us to believe; Great pleasures come when all we leave; Things of this world our hearts deceive; But "Christ is all!" to Him we cleave; He's greater than we can conceive; He died and rose to life achieve; And now in Him we do receive; More than all we'd ever leave; If you'll trust – in Him believe!
That's my King! Do you know Him?!
Our God loves those who give with cheer; Those who trust and do not fear; Who sacrifice and give what's dear; So may we give and Him revere; Who gave up all that is most dear; And took our punishment severe; Took thorny crown with spit and jeer; And had His side pierced with a spear; Yelled with a cry: "It's finished!" here; But then He rose and did appear; He conquered death and hell and fear; Now we, each Lord's Day, for Him cheer; Since He's our God Who's without peer; Who only always gave with cheer; And ever trusted without fear; Oh come to Him with faith sincere; He'll take your sins – they'll disappear; His love for you will persevere; Each day His mercy's new frontier!
In the world, there's so much need; Children starving we could feed; Unreached people's that exceed; We must take them Gospel seed; And give them beauty – Christ our creed! So it's settled – we've agreed; Now we go forth and must proceed; To give our lives to meet the need; May we be zealous for the deed; Since Jesus died for all our greed; To set us free our Christ did bleed; And now we only can succeed; For Christ will move us on with speed; His Church will triumph – guaranteed!
That's my King! That's my King!
