A Charge to Keep I Have
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #645 (1995) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Scripture: 1 Peter 4:8-11 Lyrics: 1 A charge to keep I have,

prepare a strict account to give.

and on yourself rely,
assured, if I my trust betray,
I shall forever die. Topics: Ministry and Christian Vocation; Christian Service; Commitment; Ministry; Steadfastness; Stewardship Languages: English Tune Title: ST. THOMAS

shall dawn on every cross and care.

will furnish all we ought to ask;
room to deny ourselves, a road
to bring us daily nearer God.

fit us for perfect rest above;
and help us, this and every day,
to live more nearly as we pray. Topics: Morning; Love Languages: English Tune Title: MELCOMBE

God, Whose Giving Knows No Ending
Author: Robert Edwards Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #652 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: 1 Peter 4:8-11 Lyrics: 1 God, whose giving knows no ending,
from your rich and endless store;
nature's wonder, Jesus' wisdom,
costly cross, grave's shattered door,
gifted by you, we turn to you,
off'ring up ourselves in praise;
thankful song shall rise forever,
gracious donor of our days.
2 Skills and time are ours for pressing
toward the goals of Christ, your Son;
all at peace in health and freedom,
races joined, the church made one.
Now direct our daily labor,
lest we strive for self alone;
born with talents, make us servants
fit to answer at your throne.
3 Treasure too you have entrusted,
gain through pow'rs your grace conferred,
ours to use for home and kindred,
and to spread the gospel word.
Open wide our hands in sharing,
as we heed Christ's ageless call,
healing, teaching, and reclaiming,
serving you by loving all.
