GIFTS

by Val John Jennings


God's gift to us in Jesus Christ,
and Jesus' gift to us,
are priceless gifts of endless use.
Their value we can trust.

The infant born in Bethlehem,
the resurrected Lord,
whose gift of life eternal
is both treasured and adored

has given us His presence
if we invite Him in.
He offers gifts of safety
and overcoming sin.

His presents are his Father's gifts.
All that the Father has
can be ours to use as well,
because, our Savior cares.

No earthly gift or blessing,
however we bestow,
can match the love of serving Him,
by loving others.

So, let's use the gifts of service,
of love for fellowmen.
Like wisemen carrying presents,
we present these unto Him.
