lyrics

Her Gift Of Charity
I was the least to support, the first to voice concern,…
the last to understand anything of her good turn,…
her biggest stumbling block from all I could not discern,…
her doing God’s work
through her gift of charity.

I was insensitive when she needed my compassion the most,…
I was a million miles away when she wanted me in close.
And I never caught the vision as she stood guard at the post,…
to do what she could,
with her gift of charity.

And for all the wrong reasons from all the wrong signs,…
with all the right words said at all the wrong times.

I was off fighting windmills while she was out on the front,
as she moved with her kindness to meet them who stood in want,…
and I calculated the cost, before she was even done,
never to glimpse
her gift of charity.

And in spite of my ignorance to her purpose in play,
in spite of the interferences along the way,
she still managed to get the Lord’s work done anyway,…
with sincere care
and her gift of charity.

And after it’s all done and as it stares back at me,
I perceive more clearly now what it was that she could see,…
the good that could be done to help those in need,…
with a caring heart,…
to do whatever I can,…
as with her special gift of charity.

To do what I can,
with sincere care,…
and a gift of charity.
The gift of charity.
