The Gift You Gave

Verse 1

I used to think I had to climb this mountain on my own To prove my worth, to earn Your love, to make myself known Working hard and striving, trying to be good enough Believing every step I took would measure out Your love

Chorus

But You reminded me, I don't pay for gifts, I just receive The freedom found in grace, the truth that I believe No labor, no striving, just open hands to take The perfect love You offered, for goodness sake

Verse 2

This mindset built on earning, it kept my spirit down Always chasing after something, wearing a heavy crown But then I heard Your whisper, a gentle, freeing sound "My child, it's already finished, the victory has been found"

Chorus

Oh, You reminded me, I don't pay for gifts, I just receive The freedom found in grace, the truth that I believe No labor, no striving, just open hands to take The perfect love You offered, for goodness sake

Bridge

Now I obey because I'm loved, I serve because I'm free Growing in Your goodness, for all the world to see Not to convince You to keep me, but because You first chose me This grace, it humbles, saves, and transforms me

Final Chorus

Yes, You reminded me, I don't pay for gifts, I just receive The freedom found in grace, the truth that I believe No labor, no striving, just open hands to take The perfect love You offered, for goodness sake

Outro

Just receive, oh, just receive This precious gift, believe
