Our Little Offering
Few comprehend the meaning of what holy living is
That greatest of necessities in such a time as this
Assuming they know something of what God expects of them
They put but little focus on what makes them more like Him
For many think that living in a holiness of mind
Above the common people who are not of their same kind
Is what's to be expected of the children of the King
When of a fact there's nothing in their lives they're offering
In service to their Master that can make them worthy of
A mansion in His Kingdom that is waiting up above
Where Christ said He was going to prepare a place for them
Who lived a life of holiness that replicated Him
That life He lived in service to His passion for mankind
That made the lame to walk again and gave sight to the blind
That strengthened all the feeble that He met along the way
As He sought those most needful of the things He had to say
That gave to them encouragement to walk the narrow path
Though often tried and tempted by the devil through his wrath
As he counts as his enemies the precious and the few
Who choose to follow Jesus Christ and do as He would do
Not seeking to be hermits but to be the lights of men
Who draw them to the Saviour Who has overcome all sin
And offers by His mighty grace the vict'ry just like His
So needed by His precious ones in such a time as this
And also laying ground work through their sacrificial means
That serves as a foundation in the world's last closing scenes
When only those who truly live a holy attitude
Will be expressing all their love for God in plenitude
By laying on the altar all they have and have become
Since coming to their Saviour from the past that they've come from
Into the living Presence of the One Who loves us most
And pours out in abundance through His mighty Holy Ghost
Who takes our little offering and expands it far beyond
What we in our conception ever planned or thought upon
To make us truly holy in the presence of our King
Who multiplies our little to encompass everything
Deuteronomy 28:1-13; Matthew 19-16-26
