SoD: “Touch Not the Glory”

HT: six steps + Victoria veritatis est caritas

Words by Erma Davison from the song, “Touch Not The Glory,” (C) 1993 Ron and Patricia Owens.

Have you been called to serve where others tried and failed,
And with God’s help and strength your efforts have prevailed?
Touch not the glory!

Have you some special gift, some riches you can share,
Or are you called of God to intercessory prayer?
Touch not the glory!

Has God appointed you to some great noble cause,
Or put you where you hear the sound of man’s applause?
Touch not the glory!

A watching world still waits to see what can be done
Through one who touches not that which is God’s alone.
Touch not the glory, touch not the glory, touch not the glory
For it belongs to God!

    Forgive me if you’ve heard this song before, but I've decided to stop blogging at He is Sufficient. I truly appreciate all of the wit, wisdom and words of faith that you have shared with me over the past few years. I wish you well in all of your endeavors, whatever they may be and wherever they may lead you. “God is sufficient for the needs of His people”. Amen!
