455--Every thread I wind this day,

Every thread I wind this day,

455

	1.	Every thread I wind this day,
		Every footstep on life's way,
		Every clod I shall unearth,
		Every task, whate'er its worth:
		Only for God's glory living,
		Blessing, praise and honor giving!
	2.	All the burdens of the day,
		All the words which I shall say,
		All the works my God my send,
		All the hours in rest I spend:
		Ever for His glory living,
		Blessing, praise and honor giving!
	3.	Every blood-drop in the heart,
		Every grief and aching smart,
		Every bitter pulse of pain,
		Every hour of joy again:
		Only for God's glory living,
		Blessing, praise and honor giving!
	5.	All, from deeds of little worth,
		To the greatest things on earth;
		Mine to build some world to be,
		Or to lie and gaze on Thee:
		For Thy glory daily living,
		Blessing, praise and honor giving!
