Neglect Not

Give unto the LORD glory and strength.  Give unto the LORD the glory due unto His name” (Psalm 96:7,8).  “Neglect not the gift that is in thee… Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them” (1 Timothy 4:14,15). 

Neglect not to give to the Lord all your heart, 
And give Him the glory and strength He is due.
The Lord still examines our most inward part,
And nothing is hidden from His holy view.

Neglect not the gift that is in you by grace
Which God has imparted to you with salvation.
Consider His cause in this brief time and place,
And prayerfully seek Him in your meditation.

O Lord, You left all of Your splendor above
To lay down Your life for the souls You would save. 
So teach us to live in the light of Your love
And fully surrender the life that You gave.
