"The Things God Gave Me" lyrics - THE STATLER BROTHERS

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

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

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
