the fragrance of Christ – 2 – v2

the reward of abundance
our cup overflowing
the fragrance of Christ
in our lives, communities

what joy in heaven
if this was more common
lives bearing fruit
for the work of the kingdom

the fragrance of Christ
our cups overflowing
the reward of abundance
from giving hearts

how much more could we give
a double portion, really,
if we believed more fully
with our whole hearts

what joy in heaven
if we gave sacrificially
believing God will provide
manna in the desert

the fragrance of Christ
our cups overflowing
the reward of abundance
from giving hearts
