Lyics

Yes there are joys that cannot die,

With God laid up in store;

Treasure beyond the changing sky,

Brighter than golden ore.



The seeds, which piety and love

Have scattered here below,

In the fair fertile fields above

To ample harvest grow.



The mite, my willing hands can give,

At Jesus' feet I lay;

Grace shall the humble gift receive,

And grace at large may repay.
