Given to give

inspired by parable of talents

[intro]

I was given.....

Given to— given to—

Give… give… give…

I was given to give.

[Verse 1]

You placed it in my hands, I didn’t earn a thing

Grace before the work, hope before the dream

Not just for me, not just to hold

Every gift You give is meant to go

Different hands, different callings

Different roads, but one true meaning

What You trusted me to carry

Was always meant to help somebody

[Pre-Chorus]

I hear Your heart, it’s calling me

Love in action, not belief alone

[Chorus]

I was given to give, give, give

I was called to serve, serve, serve

Every breath, every gift

Is for someone else

What You put in me

Was never meant to stay

I was made to serve

I was given this way

[Verse 2]

Some have more, some have less

But every gift is purposeful

No comparison, no regret

When love’s the goal, we’re all made whole

I won’t bury what could heal

I won’t hide what’s meant to build

Faith is moving, fear is gone

When I give, Your love lives on

[Pre-Chorus]

You didn’t give so I could shine

You gave so light would multiply

[Chorus]

I was given to give, give, give

I was called to serve, serve, serve

Every breath, every gift

Is for someone else

What You put in me

Was never meant to stay

I was made to serve

I was given this way

[Bridge]

Hands open, heart wide

What I give, You multiply

When I serve, heaven moves

Love looks like action, truth in use

Not for gain, not for fame

Not afraid to lose my name

When I pour it out in love

I step into Your joy above

[Chorus (Final)]

I was given to give, give, give

I was blessed to bless, bless, bless

I was called to serve, serve, serve

Every gift I give

Has eternal worth

What You put in me

I won’t lock away

I was made to love

I was given this way

[Outro]

I won’t bury what You gave

I was made to serve this way
