Lyrics
GIVE (SONG FOR NICOLAS)
Carlene A. Thissen Copyright 2010
VERSE 1:
Heal the sick and, cure the lame - Hear their voices, feel their pain
Like the man from Galilee
(who said) "How can I help you? What do you need?"
CHORUS:
I'll give you my love, from deep in my soul I'll give you anything I can, to make you whole
I'll give you my heart, so filled with God's light
I'll give you my life.
VERSE 2:
Welcome the stranger at your door - Cloth and comfort, feed the poor
Like the man from Immokalee
Who said, "How can I help you? What do you need?"
CHORUS:
I'll give you my love, from deep in my soul I'll give you anything I can, to make you whole
I'll give you my heart, so filled with God's light
I'll give you my life.
BRIDGE:
The lost and forgotten, the ailing and insane
Help to heal a broken world - All in God's name
CHORUS:
Give them your love, from deep in your soul
Give them anything you can, to make them whole
Give them your heart, so filled with God's light
Give them your life.
