All I Have Is Yours
What do you think of this? It's a rough draft hymn I wrote Saturday based on the part of a worship service known as the offering:
All I Have Is Yours
(85.85.88.85 meter w/ refrain)
Creator, giver of all things:
All I have is Yours.
Accept my humble offering:
All I have is Yours.
When I was chained to greed and pride,
Tight-fisted, destined just to die,
You paid my debt and bought my life --
All I have is Yours.
refrain
All I have. All I have. All I have is yours.
This offering is a means of grace.
All I have is Yours.
You show me this to grow my faith:
All I have is Yours.
The more I give, the less I need.
I learn that You’ll provide for me.
‘twas blind to this but now I see --
All I have is Yours.
refrain
Your kingdom come, Your will be done.
All I have is Yours.
You’ll finish all that You’ve begun.
All I have is Yours.
That You would use the gifts I bring
In service of the coming King
Is reason now to praise and sing:
All I have is Yours.
refrain

This is really great. My only quibble is the 6th line -- the word "just" sticks in my craw.
But apart from that, it's one of my faves in the recent past!
Since you used the words "quibble" and "craw" together in a sentence, I will have to seriously consider this "just" offense.
I think it's wunnerful. Kudos!
