Divine Multiplication

What, only five small barley loaves
And two tiny fish?
What earthly good are they among
A hungry crowd like this?
Ah, but you must remember
In Whose Hands they were laid,
And Who it was that blessed them
As He looked to Heaven and prayed!

My talents, gifts and graces, Lord,
Are pitifully small
But You can multiply them
For You are Lord of all.
When I give all I am and have
Expectantly to You,
Then many needy will be blessed
By the Mighty things YOU do!
