Give when you give him best of your service telling the world that the Saviour has come
Be not dismayed if man don't believe you he'll understand and say well done Oh when I come to the end of my journey weary of life and the battle is won Bearing the staff and the cross of redemption he'll understand and say well done (He'll understand and say well done) Misunderstood the Saviour of sinners died on the cross he was God's only son But he knew well that his father in heaven would understand and say well done Oh when I come... |

(God has my fortune laid away)
Oh the world is full of people with money just to burn Affording all the things in life for which a man might yearn Some can take life easy but I live from day by day God has my fortune laid away I search for sunshine every day but there always comes the rain The hope over my horizon was smoke without a flame Pockets that stay empty dreams that go astray God has my fortune laid away (God has my fortune laid away laid away) Oh how often I have wondered why some things have to be Some people live in riches while some live just like me The more I try to work and save the more I have to pay But God has my fortune laid away (laid away) I search for sunshine... |

Brightly beams our father's mercy from his lighthouse evermore
But to us he gives the keeping of the lights along the shore (Let the lower lights be burning send a beam across the wave Some poor fainting struggling seaman) you may rescue you may save Dark the night of sin has settled loud the angry billows roar Eager eyes are watching longing for the lights along the shore (Let the lower lights be burning... |

Soon we'll come to the end of life's journey
And perhaps we'll never meet anymore 'Til we gather in heaven's bright city Far away on that beautiful shore If we never meet again this side of heaven As we struggle through this world and its strife There's another meeting place somewhere in heaven By the river of life Where the charming roses bloom forever And where separation come no more If we never meet again this side of heaven I will meet you on that beautiful shore Oh so often we are parted with sorrow And action often quietens our pain But we never shall sorrow in heaven God be with you till we meet again |

On your knees you are taller than trees you can look over heartaches and pain
When my faith is gone to my knees I will go growing stronger and taller than trees One night it was a long time ago now I knelt at my mother's knee And she said son lift up your eyes to him in the skies And you'll grow like the mighty oaks But you son created in image of God can become taller than the tallest trees And this was the answer I felt as down at her knees I knelt On your knees you're taller than trees You can look over all your heartaches and son you can look over all of your pains When my faith is gone to my knees I will go growing stronger and taller than trees |

(When he reached down his hand for me)
Once my soul was astray from the heavenly way I was wretched and vile as could be But my Saviour in love gave me peace from above When he reached down his hand for me When he reached down his hand for me when he reached way down for me I was lost and undone without my God or his son When he reached down his hand for me [ guitar ] I was near to despair when he came to me there And he showed me that I could be free Then he lifted my feet gave me gladness complete When he reached down his hand for me When he reached down... |

These hands aren't the hands of a gentleman these hands are calloused and old
These hands raised a family these hands built a home Now these hands raised to praise the Lord These hands won the heart of my loved one and with hers they were never alone If these hands filled their task then what more could you ask For these fingers have worked to the bone [ organ ] Now don't try to judge me by what you'd like me be For my life hasn't been a success Some people have power but still they grieve While these hands brought me happiness Now I'm tired and I'm old and I haven't much gold Maybe things ain't been all that I planned Lord above hear my plea when it's time to judge me Take a look at these hard working hands take a look at these hard working hands |
