LyicsTHE gold and silver are the Lord's,
And every blessing earth affords:
All come from his propitious hand,
And must return at his command.
Oh then! shall I refuse to give
What he is willing to receive;
To aid a cause my soul approves--
A cause that every angel loves?
Forbid it, Lord; my heart incline,
To render to thee what is thine,
To give as thou hast prosper'd me,
'Tis thus I serve and honor thee.
