What Shall a Man Give the Lord?


What shall we give
To the Lord this day?
But our sins to live
The purer way

Daily procrastination
And personal pride
Each rationalization
As we ignore our guide

Being judgmental 
As we do things our way...
Each sin big or small
We are to give away

With selfishness rearward...

 All in exchange
for the greater reward
Eternal life
Through Jesus Christ, The Word

This is the exchange the Savior is asking of us: we are to give up all our sins, big or small, for the Father’s reward of eternal life. We are to forget self-justifying stories, excuses, rationalizations, defense mechanisms, procrastinations, appearances, personal pride, judgmental thoughts, and doing things our way.
