Yours the greatness, Lord, the glory
1 Yours the greatness, Lord, the glory,
splendour, might and majesty!
Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
ever-giving Trinity.
2 Generous God, we kneel astounded
that you touch our lives today
as we break this bread together,
taste the wine and pause to pray.
3 With our praises, Lord, we bring you
our possessions, like the lad
who entrusted loaves and fishes
to your keeping, all he had.
4 Take the sum of our resources:
skills and training, strength and health;
time, concern, imagination,
talents generating wealth.
5 Christ our Lord, transform these offerings -
yours the resurrection power!
Ours the task as faithful stewards
to confront the present hour.
Verse 1 may be repeated.
