A medley of Because I Have Been Given Much and Lord, I Would Follow Thee performed by the American Heritage Youth Chorus. Because I Have Been Given Much By Phillip Landgrave and Grace Noll Crowell (Used with permission from Lifeway Worship Music Services, Inc.) Lord, I Would Follow Thee Music by K. Newell Dayley Words by Susan Evans McCloud Text: 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 over head, that he too may be comforted. Savior, may I learn to love Thee, Walk the path that thou hast shown, Pause to help and lift another, Finding strength beyond my own. Savior, may I learn to love Thee! Lord, I would follow thee. 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 indeed.
