A joyful, cheerful, sacred hymn with music by Kevin G. Pace and text by Kathryn W. Hales.  The text is in reference to 2 Corinthians 9:7 for God loveth a cheerful giver.

Text:
The Lord has given us His all,
His miracles and ministry.
We show our gratitude and love,
By helping others that we see.
Sore trials and tribulations
Meet us on the path of life.
We can lift another’s burdens,
Providing comfort, settling strife.

A hug, a smile, a listening ear,
A call, a treat, a simple thing,
A gift, a card, a meal or two,
We’ll never know the good it brings.
May the Holy Spirit guide us,
To perceive another’s needs,
That through our great abundance,
We’ll join thoughts with loving deeds.

So, we’ll give our imperfect offering,
With willing heart and hands,
And the Lord in His great mercy
Will help feeble knees to stand.
Yes, be a cheerful giver,
With the charity of God’s pure love,
That in equality and strength
We’ll be united up above.

Chorus:
The Lord loves a cheerful giver,
Don’t begrudge the mite you share.
Open your heart with gladness,
Showing others that you care.
