Lectionary 18
Luke 12:13-21
It’s mine
All mine
I worked for it all
and saved
and slaved
taking what the Lord has given me
and giving only to myself in return
Mine all mine
until someday when I retire
when I rest after seven
days, years, decades
rest on what I have heaped up
in layers
between my fears and I
between my soul and I
It’s mine
but I can’t shake this feeling
that maybe
I lost it
It’s mine
All mine
I worked for it all
and saved
and slaved
taking what the Lord has given me
and giving only to myself in return
Mine all mine
until someday when I retire
when I rest after seven
days, years, decades
rest on what I have heaped up
in layers
between my fears and I
between my soul and I
It’s mine
but I can’t shake this feeling
that maybe
I lost it
