Give Me Oil in My Lamp
There was a song we sang as kids
that was a lot of fun.
Somehow we knew deep inside
we were singing of the One
to Whom we’d keep turning
“Give me oil in my lamp,
keep me burning.”
We’d sing it with enthusiasm
and it was no surprise
that we learned it was God
who provides and supplies.
“Give me gas in my Ford,
keep me trucking for the Lord.”
We learned as we sang
by giving Him our heart,
when things got tough
we wouldn’t fall apart.
“Give me umption in my gumption,
help me function, function, function.”
And to this day
I know he’s my oil, gas and umption
so I can function, function, function.
