Giving Your Best – Bible study
Its the hand we clasp with an honest grasp
That gives a hearty thrill;
Its the good we pour into others lives
That comes back our own to fill.
Its the dregs we drain from anothers cup
That makes ours seem sweet;
And the hours we give to anothers needs
That makes our life complete.
Its the burdens we help another bear
That makes our own seem light.
Its the anger seen for anothers feet
That shows us the path to right.
Its the good we do each passing day.
With heart sincere and true;
In giving the world your very best
Its best will return to you.
