The Four Gifts


                                       Author Unknown

She kneels before her Master's feet
and looks into His eyes
searching for the truth she needs
as she vows to Him her life


Four packages lay on the floor
all are wrapped with love
she reaches low to place the first
in the lap of the one she adores
opened as quickly as He had won it


He views her heart inside,
it's yours my love and has been
since the day you held me to your side


The second gift is smaller
the paper silver gilt
tis just my mind, she whispers
yours to do with as you will


The third one is small and compact
white paper, small white bow
she watches as He opens
and whispers...and now, you own my soul


She bends to pick the last gift up
and trembles as she holds it
small tears of love run down her face
this gift has been the hardest


He smiles at her and reaches
and watches the gift dissolve
Master, my love, she whispers
this gift is more than just my love
it can't be held
it can't be wrapped
The gift is my surrender
