The Statler Brothers
The Things God Gave Me
[Verse 1]
The breeze through the window
The light out at sea
The only things dear to me
Are the things God gave me
Are the things God gave me
[Verse 2]
The book that I'm reading
The sounds that I hear
Are too near a man's world
To give grace to my ear
To give grace to my ear
[Bridge]
Man sings of goodness
Then forgets what he sung
He preaches thanksgiving
Then gives thanks to none
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Man sings of goodness
Then forgets what he sung
He preaches thanksgiving
Then gives thanks to none
[Verse 3]
The breeze through the window
The light out at sea
The only things dear to me
Are the things God gave me
Are the things God gave me
