only so much given

use your time well

the gifts you are given

your talents, your skills

for building up the kingdom

only so much given

how much we do not know

use your time wisely

for our lives will end

lift up your neighbors

be a true friend

open up your hearts

for Christ’s example

offer your witness

sharing what you are given
