My talents are few, dearest Master,
Yet I long of some use to be,
Then, tell me, I pray thee, dear Jesus,
How may I do something for thee?
I cannot with fiery warnings,
Make the wicked their guilt to see,
Yet surely some pathway is open,
Where I may do something for thee. [Refrain]
No riches, alas! can I give thee,
For they never have come to me,
But freely I lay on thy altar,
My life, to do something for thee. [Refrain]
Refrain:
Something for thee, something for thee,
Oh, tell me, I pray thee, dear Master,
How may I do something for thee?
William Henry Gardner, 1892
Read Exodus 35:20-29
Just as the Israelites willingly brought their offerings for the Tabernacle, we can offer God our lives, talents, and resources without reservation. Every aspect of our lives can be dedicated to His service, knowing that He values even the smallest offerings when given with a sincere heart.
