This Is the Gift Lyrics

Come and sing these songs with me and walk these velvet hills.

What will each new day bring into this world so still?

Oh, to breath this air so sweet and wear this life like silk,

with grateful hearts we reach for this,

this is the gift... this is the gift.

This is the gift,

this chance to laugh and love and live

and kiss the faithful hand that gives.

This is the gift.

So, come and "dance this dance with me" in the garden of these hours.

Watch as our dreams grow into memories like flowers,

then lay us down to sleep to wear a crown of stars

and know for after all this is,

this is the gift... this is the gift.

This is the gift,

this chance to laugh and love and live

and kiss the faithful hand that gives.

This is the gift... this is the gift.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
