Backstory:
“ONE LIFE” --- This song came very quickly, and completely without warning, during an unexpected
“contemplation” on the Saturday before Easter (Holy Saturday), April 3, 2021, while sitting on the front steps in the company of my wonderful old Black Lab, Charlie!
Lyrics:
ONE LIFE FOR THE WORLD
( music and lyrics by Dan O’Brien © April 3/21)
1)
One Life for the world
Is the gift that He gave us,
A key to the Kingdom, where peace and love reign,
A Man of the people,
Sent down from heaven,
And love never-ending, from the moment He came.
2)
One Life for the world
Living right here amongst us,
Not with riches and grandeur, but in simplicity,
A carpenter’s Helper, a Gift to His mother,
A Teacher, A Healer,
Who would set us all free.
(Bridge)
What will you do now
With this gift that He gave you,
Will you honour His message to proclaim The Good News,
Oh, believe it still matters
In this world we now live in,
And ask for His guidance in the life that you choose.
3)
One Life for the world,
The great gift that He gave us,
Our keys to His Kingdom, for eternity,
Rejoice and be glad then,
For in truth He is risen,
And Jesus Our Saviour, lives for you and for me.
Jesus, Our Saviour,
He lives for you and for me.
