Story behind the song
Story behind The Gift You've Given Me I was driving home from work one day kinda moping about how good everybody else was at so many things when the words of this poem came to me almost all at once. I had to drive home faster so I could write it down. I consider it an admonishment to use whatever gift you have and not waste time worrying about what other people can do. I brought the poem to Karen Doucette - it didn't even have a title - and the next time I saw her it sounded like this! Awesome!
Lyrics
The Gift You’ve Given Me (Come Shine On Us) Lyrics by Twila Hillier/Music Karen Doucette If I were the wind, Lord Then with every breath drawn All creatures would praise You And lift Your name in song I’ll use the gift You’ve given me To the best of my ability I’ll be the wind if You want me to So that Your Grace shows through Oooooo If I were a storm, Lord You’re awesome power I’d show With lightning flash and thunder roar So everyone would know I’ll use the gift You’ve given me To the best of my ability I’ll be a storm if You want me to So that You’re strength shows thru Ooooo… If I were the sun, Lord And could shine warm and bright I’d shine till the darkness was Replaced by Your light I’ll use the gift You’ve given me To the best of my ability I’ll be the sun if You want me to So that You’re love shines through Ooooooo…… I’ll use the gift You’ve given me To the best of my ability I’ll use the gift You’ve given me I’ll let Your love shine through me Ooooooooooo…… Ooooooooooo……
