Help us Lord to see ourselves
Through your loving eyes
To see what you see in us
And to come to realize
That everything that we possess
Comes directly from you
The gifts, the talents you’ve placed within
Are there for us to use
To reach with hope to those that hurt
To those who’ve lost their way
It’s your gifts Lord, they’re not our own
So take them Lord we pray
And use them for your glory
So others may be blessed
And have their spirits lifted
And their souls also refreshed
So they can then be challenged
To seek more after you
To be much more empowered
For what ever they may do
For each of us have talents
That God has placed within
So we can encourage others
To have a closer walk with Him
And as we encourage another
We can be encouraged ourselves
For there needs to be a continual flow
And a continual pouring out
And as we do this we will find
Insecurities will disappear
And we’ll be strengthened in His love
To overcome our fears.
