Lyrics
If you want to be blessed,
Pay your tithes and Offering
If you want More
Give to the poor
(Repeat)
And the Lord will give it back to you (2x)
He said he'd open up the windows of Heaven
Pour you out a blessing
He will supply you every need
according to his riches in glory
Give and you shall receive
If you want to be blessed
Give and you shall recieve
(Repeat)

Meaning & Inspiration
“Tithes and Offerings” connects Christian giving with trust in God’s provision and practical care for people in need. Its opening lines place tithes, offerings, and generosity toward the poor beside the desire for blessing. The refrain then turns to the expectation that God supplies what is needed. Because the lyric draws together several biblical phrases, it reads as a compact teaching song built around familiar passages on generosity and dependence on God.
The image of heaven’s windows opening directly echoes Malachi 3:10, where the people are called to bring the full tithe and God promises abundant blessing. The statement about God supplying every need reflects Philippians 4:19, while the call to give and receive recalls Luke 6:38. Those passages place the song within a broader biblical account of stewardship. Its central claim is not merely about material return; giving is presented as obedience, care for the poor, and confidence that God remains the source of provision.
