Lyrics

The Foolish one took what was given
Be it big or be it small
Took the talent and hid it away
Hid it away for another day

Build a bigger barn
Dig a bigger hole
Wasted opportunities
Can bury your soul

Wasted away (wasted away)
Wasted away (wasted away)
Like it was never supposed to be
Wasted away (wasted away)
Wasted away (wasted away)
The blessing that does not bear fruit
Is the blessing that died on delivery

Be it much (be it much, be it much)
Be it little (be it little, be it little)
A gift not used (not used)
Is a band without a fiddle

The prudent took their gifts
And invested into the kingdom
The need is great, the time is now
To change the world around them

No barn to be built
No hole to dig
Take what I have been given
And invest it in the kingdom

I want to take what I have been given
And use it for good
I want to use what I have been given
So that what I have been given
Is not ever
Is not simply

Wasted away (wasted away)
Wasted away (wasted away)
Like it was never supposed to be
Wasted away (wasted away)
Wasted away (wasted away)
The blessing that does not bear fruit
Is the blessing that died on delivery

Be it much (be it much, be it much)
Be it little (be it little, be it little)
A gift not used (not used)
Is a band without a fiddle

It may not be much
It may seem silly
But it is what I have
And it is what I have to give

No, It may not be much
It may seem strange
But it is what I have
And it is what I have to give

I want to take what I have been given
And use it for good
I want to use what I have been given
So that what I have been given
Is not ever
Is not simply

Wasted away (wasted away)
Wasted away (wasted away)
Like it was never supposed to be
Wasted away (wasted away)
Wasted away (wasted away)
The blessing that does not bear fruit
Is the blessing that died on delivery

Be it much (be it much, be it much)
Be it little (be it little, be it little)
A gift not used (not used)
Is a band without a fiddle
