The Sweetest Gift Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Quietly while you were asleep
The moon and I were talking
I asked that she'd always keep you protected
She promised you her light
That you so gracefully carry
You bring your light and shine like morning
[Verse 2]
And then the wind pulls the clouds across the moon
Your light fills the darkest room
And I can see the miracle
That keeps us from falling
[Verse 3]
She promised all the sweetest gifts
That only the heaven's could bestow
You bring your light and shine like morning
[Verse 4]
And as you so gracefully give
Her light as long as you live
I'll always remember this moment
