At the impulse of Thy love;
Take my feet and let them be

Always, only, for my King;
Take my lips and let them be
Filled with messages from Thee,

Not a mite would I withhold;
Take my intellect and use
Ev'ry pow'r as Thou shalt choose,

It shall be no longer mine;
Take my heart - it is Thine own,
It shall be Thy royal throne,
It shall be Thy royal throne.

At Thy feet its treasure store;
Take myself - and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee,
Ever, only, all for Thee.

What hast thou borne for Me?

God, Whose Giving Knows No Ending
Author: Robert L. Edwards Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 33 hymnals Topics: Life of Discipleship Stewardship and Service; God's Church Life of Discipleship: Stewardship and Service Lyrics: 1 God, whose giving knows no ending,
from your rich and endless store,
nature's wonder, Jesus' wisdom,
costly cross, grave's shattered door:
gifted by you, we turn to you,
offering up ourselves in praise;
thankful song shall rise forever,
gracious donor of our days.
2 Skills and time are ours for pressing
toward the goals of Christ, your Son:
all at peace in health and freedom,
races joined, the church made one.
Now direct our daily labor,
lest we strive for self alone;
born with talents, make us servants
fit to answer at Your throne.
3 Treasure too you have entrusted,
gain through powers your grace conferred;
ours to use for home and kindred,
and to spread the gospel Word.
Open wide our hands, in sharing,
as we heed Christ's ageless call,
healing, teaching, and reclaiming,
serving you by loving all. Used With Tune: NETTLETON

In closer, dearer company,
In work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
In trust that triumphs over wrong;
4 In hope that sends a shining ray
Far down the future's broadening way,
In peace that only Thou canst give,
With Thee, O Master, let me live.

Fit me for life and heaven above. [Refrain] Used With Tune: RONDINELLA
