The Greatest Gift
You can give your children houses
You can give them land
The riches of your efforts
And all your best laid plans
But of all that they inherit
Of all that you could will
Please include the unseen treasure
Of a life that God has filled.
Cause the greatest gift a father can give
Is a life lived for Jesus
And the greatest gift a mother can give
Is the knowledge of the Lord
Pass it on to your children
He's the gift that keeps on giving
The greatest gift is a life lived for Jesus
One day the house will crumble
Time will turn the land to dust
And when all accounts are empty
Where will you invest their trust
But if the riches you give them
Is the wisdom of his ways
Then the wealth you leave your children
Will last through all their days
sing twice
Time will turn the land to dust
You can give them land
The riches of your efforts
And all your best laid plans
But of all that they inherit
Of all that you could will
Please include the unseen treasure
Of a life that God has filled.
Cause the greatest gift a father can give
Is a life lived for Jesus
And the greatest gift a mother can give
Is the knowledge of the Lord
Pass it on to your children
He's the gift that keeps on giving
The greatest gift is a life lived for Jesus
One day the house will crumble
Time will turn the land to dust
And when all accounts are empty
Where will you invest their trust
But if the riches you give them
Is the wisdom of his ways
Then the wealth you leave your children
Will last through all their days
sing twice
Time will turn the land to dust
