Because I Have Been Given Much

Because I Have Been Given Much

Because I have been given much,

I too must give;

Because of thy great bounty Lord,

Each day I live;

I shall divide my gifts from thee

With every brother that I see

Who has the need of help from me.

Because I have been sheltered, fed

By thy good care;

I cannot see another’s lack and I not share;

My glowing fire, my loaf of bread,

my roof's safe shelter overhead

That he too may be comforted.

Because I have been blessed by

thy great love dear Lord;

I’ll share thy love again

According to thy word;

I shall give love to those in need,

I’ll show that love by word and deed;

Thus shall my thanks be thanks in deed.

The LDS hymn above is an excellent mindset to have with society. The title of this song is "Because I Have Been Given Much." However, the spirit of this hymn is not limited to the wealthy or those in abundance. Instead, it speaks to sharing the love of God to us to our fellow man. As you begin this month of March, extend love to those around you when you see a need.

Because I have been blessed by thy great love dear Lord; I’ll share thy love again according to thy word.
