She Gave It All She Had

His Lord said to him,
"Well done, good and faithful servant;
you were faithful over a few things,
I will make you ruler over many things.
Enter into the joy of your lord."
(Matthew 25:2)
God gave to me a gift of life
to cherish, not to waste...
I’ve made the choice to live it well,
(not squander it in haste.)

The years go by so quickly now,
I long to make a mark...
to leave behind a legacy,
from this journey I embark.

I pray that all I do today
will have eternal worth...
and shine the light of Christ in me,
while traveling on this earth.

When all at once I’m called away,
to my final resting pad...
I pray they’ll say,
“She did her best, she gave it all she had.”
