I wanted to sing, a song of my love for You,
But I’m having to settle, for singing about how I tried.
I can’t find the words; perhaps there are no words to find,
And maybe that’s better; there’s really no way to describe
The gift I’ve been given, to give away,
(For) If it’s not given, it’s taken away;
The gift I’ve been given, to give away.
I don’t understand, why You have chosen me,
To tell all the world, that You’ve come to set people free;
For I’m just a man, and rarely a good one it seems,
But that’s Your command, and lately it’s becoming my dream;
The gift I’ve been given, to give away,
(For) if it’s not given, it’s taken away.
The gift I've been given, to give away.
