Your Presence Is My Favorite Gift

There's a swing on the back porch where I sit in the morning

when the sun is slowly rising with a Bible on my knee

and at the last swallow of coffee

I'll just sit there in your presence for awhile

and let your spirit come and move all over me

Thank you Lord for everything you've given me.

You've provided every need both big and small

and more than all of the blessing that you pour out everyday,

Your presence is my favorite gift of all

Sometimes late at night when the kids are asleep,

I'll go out into the yard and just listen to the night

and I can fee your holy spirit as a whipporwill leads nature in a praise song

and every critter in the forest seems to cryout.

More than all of the blessings that you pour out everyday,

your presence is my favorite gift of all
