Verse 1

Jesus Christ came to the world just as a lowly man
He came to teach God's holy ways and save our soul from hell
The path we take is our own choice that we must make each day
To choose God's path of righteousness gives everlasting life

Verse 2

God gives us all the tools we need to make a happy life
The loving and the caring tools bring joy to all they touch
But agapy love gives all you have and keeps on loving more
God gives this love to all mankind we must give him our love

Verse 3

God gave us power over all our sins through Christ's own sacrifice
Everlasting life is another gift through faith in Jesus Christ
We must accept our savior Christ before the gifts are ours
So profess your faith in Jesus Christ, savior of our soul

Chorus

Give thanks to the lord our God give praises to his name
For all the things he's done for you and me
He sent his only son to free us from our sins
and guide us along the path of righteousness
