A Gift of Love

Randy Travis · Other Songs - Randy Travis

On the day you were born

There in your mother's arms,

An angel told me, always you will be

A gift of love, from God to me



Love took flight

The day you came into my life

There is magic in the way I feel

Hearts open wide, gazing into your eyes

There is magic

As long as I am alive



I have never loved

Another like you

A gift for free

Always you will be

A gift of love, from God to me
