Of all the gifts Thy love bestows,
Thou Giver of all good !
Not heaven itself a richer knows
Than the Redeemer's blood.
Faith, too, that trusts the blood through grace,
From that same love we gain;
Else sweetly as it suits our case,
The gift had been in vain.
We praise Thee, and would praise Thee more,
To Thee our all we owe;
The precious Saviour and the power
That makes Him precious too.
C.M. W. Cowper
