"I was there and saw it for myself. They gave offerings of whatever they could--far more than they could afford!-- pleading for the privilege of helping out in the relief of poor Christians. This was totally spontaneous, entirely their own idea, and caught us completely off guard. What explains it was that they had first given themselves unreservedly to God and to us. The other giving simply flowed out of the purposes of God working in their lives." (2 Corinthians 8:3-5 MSG)

================&&&&&====================

Gave myself to Him piece meal

Had a spiritual side

And a secular one

One for Him the other for me

Needless to say I made a mess of mine

So I did the smart thing

I gave it all to Him

Lock, stock and barrel

================&&&&&====================

I hold nothing back

I put it all in His hands

No longer handing over

One piece at a time

But everything together

Nothing missing

I handed it all over

Lock, stock and barrel

================&&&&&====================

So His blessings flow

From the bottom right to the top

His life filling all in all

All is safe and secure

In His rock steady hands

None, will He let fall

As He holds them all

Lock, stock and barrel

================&&&&&====================
