Silver and Gold

As Peter walked thru the temple gate 
Beautiful was it's name 
Did He know He'd be a miracle 
To a man from birth was lame 

Silver and Gold have I none 
But such as I have I give 
Rise up and walk for all may know 
The Saviour who died does live 

Share with others the gifts we have 
Tho to us they may seem small 
The more we give the more of God 
Can be seen by one and all 

So give with loving kindness 
To whoever may come your way 
And the light of God will light our path 
And turn the darkness into day
