The Most Dangerous Sinner of All
/Date: Third Sunday After the Epiphany
Text: Mark 1:14–20 and Jonah 3:1–5, 10
We give thee but thine own, whate'er the gift may be;
all that we have is thine alone, a trust, O Lord, from thee.
May we thy bounties thus as stewards true receive,
and gladly, as thou blessest us, to thee our first-fruits give.
And we believe thy Word, though dim our faith may be;
whate'er for thine we do, O Lord, we do it unto thee.–Robert Schumann
