God Gives Gifts

(Lauren's Song)

God gives gifts to all His own

I know that I am loved

Because He sends me rainbows

From His mercy seat above

Every perfect thing bestowed

Is credit to His grace

And though I cannot touch my God

I see Him in your face

When I hear your voice

I hear God saying “Child, I love you.”

When I see your smile

I know that He has smiled on me

You are like a one-way sign

That points my heart toward heaven

From which the blessings flow abundantly

You are my reminder

That a God who loves me gives

The likeness that I see in you

Reflects that Jesus lives

When I see you face to face

I know that He is there

That heart of yours that seeks His throne

Unites with me in prayer

When I hear your voice

I hear God saying “Child, I love you.”

When I see your smile

I know that He has smiled on me

You are like a one-way sign

That points my heart toward heaven

From which the blessings flow abundantly

There is a bond of blood

That runs deeper than our veins

The Prince who bought you with His blood

Has cleansed me of my stains

The God who so loved that He gave

His Son to bear our sins

Will no good thing from me withhold

So He gave me you as friend

When I hear your voice

I hear God saying “Child, I love you.”

When I see your smile

I know that He has smiled on me

You are like a one-way sign

That points my heart toward heaven

From which the blessings flow abundantly
