Author: Nicholls Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #381b (1917) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.4 Hymnal Title: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church Lyrics: 1 O Thou best Gift of Heaven!
Thou Who Thyself hast given,--
For Thou hast died!
This hast Thou done for me:
What have I done for Thee,
Thou Crucified?
2 I long to serve Thee more:--
Reveal an open door,
Saviour, to me;
Then, counting all but loss,
I'll glory in Thy Cross,
And follow Thee.
3 Do Thou but point the way,
And give me strength t'obey;
Thy will be mine:
Then can I think it joy
To suffer or to die,
Since I am Thine.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Christian Service Languages: English Tune Title: DONUM COELI
