in the singular, special,
One gift
for the kingdom
One gift
to be used in service
One gift
offered to God to use
many talents,
One gift
many gifts from God
but One gift to share.
the one gift special,
One gift more than the
others,
to be given to God
in His service
the One gift that is
different
given to us to witness
a light we have been gifted
for the world
not to be hidden, to be
mingled,
with the other gifts given
One gift to offer,
One gift to share.
