Three servants before God
with their talents, their
gifts,
given from God to them
gifts each were given
to be used for God’s glory
to reap a harvest
a bounty for the Lord
Those who received credit
when the Master returned
Faithful to God’s purpose
risking it all, working
fruit from the treasure
given
gathering a bounty
a harvest for the Lord
