Not of me,
This Gift of grace:
The Joy of Life,
We must embrace.
Not of me,
This Gift of hope:
The Word of God,
That helps us cope.
Not of me,
This Gift of faith:
The Peace of Jesus,
He freely gave.
Not of me,
This Gift of God:
The Blood of Christ,
Spilled on The Cross.
Not of me,
This Gift from Above;
The Gift of Truth,
The Gift of Love.
