Give 2
It is a blessing to give all that you own and possess away
Than to hold on to the blessing I give to you for that rainy day
All the holiness of heaven will flow in your life when you share
Share the love within you and give it to the lonely so they know you care
Step out with trust that what you give away will be multiplied and given back
Your life will be full of joy and in the future day your life will never lack
You are worthy of the gifts of heaven and they will pour down freely given
Never look back at what could have been but give your attention to the living
Living for the righteousness of the Lord in your life as an example
To the lost who do not know Jesus but it is your joy they will sample
As you give them your joy open your arms and your life to free the lost
The fullness of heaven will pour through you but will come at a cost
Hold nothing back for the bounty of heaven has no end and is there for you
As you give you will receive favor after favor in all that you do
Your life will be uplifted by the smiles on the faces of those who you touch
All the kindness and love of heaven will not be held back and will never be too much

(Mark 10:45 NRSV) For the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.”
(Luke 6:38 NRSV) give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap; for the measure you give will be the measure you get back.”
(John 13:34 NRSV) I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another.
(Acts 20:35 NRSV) In all this I have given you an example that by such work we must support the weak, remembering the words of the Lord Jesus, for he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
(Rom 8:11 NRSV) If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also through his Spirit that dwells in you.
(Rev 21:6 NRSV) Then he said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give water as a gift from the spring of the water of life.
