The Gift - Jim Brickman

"The Gift" is a duet that Chelsea and I would love to do one day.  I was introduced to the song by Chelsea when we first started dating.  She sang it a very long time ago at church.  Each day is a gift together and we are so very thankful for all we have.

This is day 2 of our favorite Christmas songs.  Please stay tuned for more of our favorites.



In drafting today's post we did not even think about today being the 2nd of December.  We've been married four months!

Winter snow is falling down
Children laughing all around
Lights are turning on
Like a fairy tale come true

Sittin' by the fire we made
You're the answer when I prayed
I would find someone
And, baby, I found you

And all I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more everyday
You saved my heart from being broken apart
You gave your love away and I'm thankful everyday, for the gift

Watching as you softly sleep
What I'd give if I could keep
Just this moment
If only time stood still

But the colors fade away
And the years will make us gray
But, baby, in my eyes
You'll still be beautiful

And all I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more everyday
You saved my heart from being broken apart
You gave your love away and I'm thankful everyday, for the gift

And all I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more everyday
You saved my heart from being broken apart
You gave your love away
I can't find the words to say
And I'm thankful everyday, for the gift
