Housefires and Pat Barrett's song 'Life Is a Gift' is a worshipful reflection on the goodness of God as the giver of life. The lyrics emphasize that every breath is a gift from God, and they express gratitude for His mercy and grace. The song invites listeners to receive all that God has for them, acknowledging that in Him we live and move. It is a simple, repetitive declaration of trust and thankfulness, focusing on God's generosity and the preciousness of life itself.

Every breath is a gift from You

We breathe deep Your mercy

We breathe deep Your grace

Lord, we take You in

In You we live and move and have our being


Life is a gift and the Giver is good

Life is a gift and the Giver is good

Life is a gift and the Giver is good


Oh we take You in Lord

Life is a gift from You


Life is a gift and the Giver is good

Life is a gift and the Giver is good

Life is a gift and the Giver is good


Oh we take You in Lord

To see my life as a gift from heaven

Every breath, something You've given


I receive, I receive,

Everything You have for me

I receive, I receive,

Everything You have for me

I receive, I receive

Everything You have for me 

I receive, I receive
