One of my favorite hymns....Because I have been given much. You will ALWAYS get tears from me when I hear this song. July 11, 2009 at 11:11am

Because I have been given much,
I too must give;
Because of thy great bounty, Lord,
each day I live
I shall divide my gifts from thee
With every brother that I see
Who has the need of help from me.

Because I have been sheltered,
fed by thy good care,
I cannot see another's lack
and I not share
My glowing fire, my loaf of bread,
My roof's safe shelter over head,
That he too may be comforted.

Because I have been blessed by thy great love,
Dear Lord,
I'll share thy love again, according to thy word.
I shall give love to those in need;
I'll show that love by word and deed;
Thus shall my thanks be thanks indeed.
