Talents (Author unknown)
Have you ever read the story Jesus told so long ago
Of the talents that were given and were made to grow and grow?
How the Master on a journey, left his servants many days
And again upon returning only two received his praise?
For the servant with the many, he had worked and gathered more
And the one with lesser talents also had a greater store.
But the last, his talent buried, for he had received but one
When his Master too returned h heard not the words "Well Done!"
Our Master's on a journey, he has given talents too!
Are we working for the Master, when there is so much to do?
Can we see our talents growing, be they many, few or one?
When our Master too returneth, will we hear the words "Well done?"
