Render Unto God

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I get so busy every day

It’s easy to lose track

Of what I’m really working for,

The blessing, not the lack.

 

It’s nice to know the bills are paid,

There’s food enough to eat,

But that is only a small part

Of what makes life so sweet.

 

I’ve struggled more than once or twice,

Cut corners where I could,

But I still found life was a gift

That was precious and good.

 

Don’t shirk the task, work hard, indeed,

As you are called to do,

But take time, too, to see the grace

That God has given You.

 

Work hard and do the best you can,

But stop along the way

To thank the Lord for the blessings

With which He gilds each day.

 

Matthew 22:21

…  Then he said to them, “Therefore render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.”
