LET US BE CHEERFUL GIVERS

God loves a cheerful giver.  (2 Cor 9:7)

Lord, if we sow sparingly, then sparingly we will reap.
Let our sowing be bountiful, lest we have cause to weep.
With hope and faith in You, Lord, may we cheerfully give.
Since You love a cheerful giver.  Cheerfully, may we live.

Let us sow seeds of righteousness—let righteousness abound.
Increase Your harvest now in us.  Let faith in us be found.
Thank You for all You’ve given us.  Keep us ever thankful.
Keep us ever close to You, with spirits ever tranquil.

Bless our loved ones too, dear Lord.  Grant them pure hearts anew.
May they sow seeds of righteousness, forever trust in You.
Help loved ones to give cheerfully.  Let true love be given to them.
Help them to spread the Truth, Lord.  To Your Truth, say “Amen.”

Go to them now, dear Jesus.  A good harvest may they reap.
Help them to scatter seeds of faith.  Grant them a faith that’s deep.
Be the light upon their journey.   Be the light which guides their way.
In truth, bring them back to You. Bring them back to You today.
