Jennifer Todd - Give Lyrics
You didn’t use concrete, sand or steelYou didn’t swing a hammer on a nailBut you made a living building bridges all those yearsWith a ton of smiles and sometimes a few tears.You made the greatest impact without wordsYou didn’t need the power of your voice to be heardLove spoke the loudest about how you chose to liveAnd when you didn’t have to give, you still did.With every seed of love you sowedAnd every sacrifice you madeEvery time you out-loved every painFrom every hug ‘round every neckTo every storybook you readAnd every hungry stomach that you fedWhen you didn’t have to give, you didI remember how your letters made me feelWhat you wrote was water putting out flames from hellYou strengthened my heart with every word I readAnd when you didn't have to give, you still didWith every seed of love you sowedAnd every sacrifice you madeEvery time you out-loved every painFrom every hug round every neckTo every storybook you readAnd every hungry stomach that you fedWhen you didn't have to give, you did, you still did(Instrumental)With every seed of love you sowedAnd every sacrifice you madeAnd every hungry stomach that you fedWhen you didn't have to giveWhen there was nothing left to give, you still didWith every sacrifice you madeYou chose to give your love awayYou showed love in how you livedAnd found a way to always give
