Lifegiver
Lifegiver: Embracing Love, Grace, and Renewal
Lyrics
You gave me love, Oh Lord
You provided me with love, O Lord.
When I was so unlovable
Even when I was difficult to love, you still showed me love.
You gave me peace, Oh Lord
You granted me peace, O Lord.
When I was so restless
In times of restlessness, you brought me peace.
You gave me a joyful song to sing
You gave me a joyful song to sing despite my downhearted state.
When I was so downhearted
Even when I was feeling low, you provided a reason for joy.

You are the Lifegiver
You are the ultimate source of life, the Lifegiver.
You are the Lifegiver

You brought me water to drink
You provided water for me to drink when I was thirsty.
When my throat was parched from the sun
Your grace sustained me, especially when I was engulfed in transgressions.
You gave me grace, Sweet Jesus
Grace from Jesus was extended to me when I was spiritually dead.
When I was dead in my transgressions
You surrounded me with brothers and sisters for support.
You gave me brothers and sisters to come along side
When I felt unable to continue, you provided companionship.
Me when I just can't go on, I just can't go on
Repeated acknowledgment of divine assistance during challenging times.
You give me everything I need
You supply everything I need.
You give me everything I need
Reiteration of divine provision and fulfillment of needs.
