Take thou the offering thy - Offertory

Take thou the offering thy children make
all united for thy name’s sake

Heavenly Father, Almighty God
We offer Thee this sacrifice
Show to us thy mercy, O Lord
Forgive us the sins of all our life

Take thou the offering thy children make
all united for thy name’s sake

To thee, O Lord, our joy we give
our weariness, our work and woe
The anxious moments that we live
Lighten our burden as we go

Take thou the offering thy children make
all united for thy name’s sake

For all the living take Thou this gift
For our brothers and sisters who join in prayer
For the absent ones our hearts we lift
Keep them all in Thy loving care.

Take thou the offering thy children make
all united for thy name’s sake
