Gift and Giver

My gift is worth more not because of me,
its worth derives from Him to Whom it's given;
God's gift to me is worth infinity,
God gives my gift the endless worth of heaven.
God's greatness wraps itself around my gift,
and then because my gift is given free,
my gift's unworthiness begins to shift,
and God's great worth uplifts my gift and me.
I cannot give unless God wants me to,
His power alone lets me my gift deliver,
and only God can tell my faith is true,
and with His infinite love bless gift and giver.
Accept this worthless gift from worthless me,
and raise me, God, to Your infinity.
