Forgive me, oh Lord, for being so dim. I’ve embraced this small gift, put my arms around Him. I was holding so tight, it was all I could do; I forgot that my arms belong first around You Now Jesus has taught to let everything go: All the thing that you hold, all the people you know. If you’ll stop asking questions and simply obey, You’ll possess them in a much more beautiful way. So sing for the giver whose name is a prayer, And sing to the baby He’s given so fair, And sing to yourself, be you husband or wife, And remember a child is a gift of life. So sing for the giver whose name is a prayer, And sing to the baby He’s given so fair, And sing to yourself, be you husband or wife, And remember a child is a gift of life. And remember a child is a gift of life.
