Never The Same
Transformative Generosity: A Musical Tale of Unlikely Abundance
Lyrics
Just a little cruise of oil was all she had to spare
She had very limited resources, only a small amount of oil to spare.
Just a cup or two of flour to make a cake to share
She had only a small quantity of flour, enough to make a cake for sharing.
Yet she gave it to the prophet, she gave it in God's name
Despite the scarcity, she selflessly offered it to the prophet in the name of God.
And the little that she seemed to have was never quite the same
Although she seemed to possess very little, her act of giving transformed her situation.
When you finally learn to give it up, no matter just how small
Learning to give, regardless of how little one has, leads to a significant change.
When you open up your hands to God, your life, your very all
When one surrenders everything to God, a transformative impact occurs in life.
There's something that will happen to the world you can't explain
Something unexplainable happens to the world when this surrender takes place.
But the little that you seem to have will never be the same
Even a small possession becomes more significant after giving it up in faith.
Just a lunch of two small fishes and five small loaves of bread
A small lunch comprising two fishes and five loaves of bread.
Yet he gave it to the Master, how would the crowd be fed
Despite the scarcity, it was offered to the Master, raising questions about feeding the crowd.
Yet in the hands of Jesus, a feast his lunch became
In Jesus's hands, the meager lunch miraculously became a feast for the crowd.
And the little that he seemed to have was never quite the same
Similar to the first instance, the act of giving transformed what seemed inadequate.
When you finally learn to give it up, no matter just how small
Reiterating the lesson of giving, no matter the quantity.
When you open up your hands to God, your life, your very all
Surrendering completely to God leads to a transformation in life.
There's something that will happen to the world you can't explain
An inexplicable change occurs in the world when this surrender happens.
But the little that you seem to have will never be the same
The little one has, after giving it up, becomes more valuable.
When you finally learn to give it up, no matter just how small
Reiteration of the importance of giving, regardless of how small the offering is.
When you open up your hands to God, your life, your very all
Surrendering everything to God brings about a profound transformation.
There's something that will happen to the world you can't explain
There's a mysterious change in the world when this surrender takes place.
But the little that you seem to have will never be the same
Similar to prior lines, giving even a small possession leads to a significant change.
Yes, the little that you seem to have will never be the same
Emphasizes the lasting impact of giving, no matter how small it might seem.
The same
A repetition underscoring that the change remains constant and lasting.
