CHRIST'S GIVING by ANN HAMILTON (1902-)

First Line: THE SPIRIT OF SELF-SACRIFICE
Last Line: SUCH WAS CHRIST'S GIVING.
Subject(s): JESUS CHRIST - LIFE & MINISTRY;
The spirit of self-sacrifice
Stays not to count the price.

Christ did not of his mere abundance cast
Into the empty treasury of man's store:
The First and Last
Gave until even he could give no more;
His very living,
Such was Christ's giving.
