Dearest Lord, teach me to be generous
Teach me to serve You as I should
To give and not to count the cost
To fight and not to heed the wounds
To toil and not to seek for rest
To labor and ask not for reward
Save that of knowing that I do Your most holy will
Refrain
You alone are holy,
you alone are Lord.
You alone are worthy to be honored and adored.
Mercy you have given,
kindness you have shown.
Love is you alone.
Verse 1
Who of us is sinless in this place?
Who of us deserves your saving grace?
Who of us is good at all
without your blessed love
that falls upon our hearts
to heal our brokenness?
->Refrain
Verse 2
What is there to do but thank you, then,
for the gift that we might call you friend?
Greater love has not been known
than that for which you gave
your only son,
that you might see us, pure and blessed.
