开云体育27 November 2024 WHAT SHALL WE OFFER OUR GOOD LORD? Words: August G. Spangenberg Music: Orlando Gibbons? What shall we of?fer our good Lord, Poor no?things! for His bound?less grace! Fain would we His great name re?cord, And wor?thi?ly set forth His praise. Great ob?ject of our grow?ing love, To whom our more than all we owe, Open the fount?ain from above, And let it our full souls o’er?flow. So shall our lives Thy pow?er pro?claim, Thy grace for ev?ery sin?ner free; Till all man?kind shall learn Thy name, Shall all stretch out their hands to Thee. Open a door which earth and hell May strive to shut, but strive in vain; Let Thy Word rich?ly in us dwell, And let our gra?cious fruit re?main. O mul?ti?ply the sow?er’s seed! And fruit we ev?ery hour shall bear, Throughout the world Thy Gos?pel spread, Thy ev?er?last?ing truth de?clare. We all, in per?fect love re?newed, Shall know the great?ness of Thy pow?er; Stand in the tem?ple of our God, As pil?lars, and go out no more.?
