Story Behind The Song
This song is for my sister who has an incredible voice and a wonderful gift for drama.
Song Description
Life would be a lot less colorful or meaningful without the gift of art, music, or drama. As we celebrate and worship God we can also thank him for the opportunity we have to use these gifts...these gifts of beauty...to worship him.

Lyrics
Verse #1
What would life be without color?
Dramas that share a picture of life
Feelings released, pent up so long
Until we hear the words of a song
CHORUS
Thank you, God, for the gift of beauty
Thank you, Lord, for a voice to sing
The gift that I raise is my song of praise
The stones would cry out if it were missing
Thank you, God, for the gift of beauty
Thank you, Lord, for my soul?s offering
The passion of my art, is to share from my heart
The song my soul longs to sing
Verse #2
Our world would be empty and silent
Our thoughts without depth or feel
The soul of a man would be so bland
The canvas of life so unreal
CHORUS
Verse #3
The privilege to share is an honor
My Father in heaven I adore
His image I bear, by creating I share
It causes my spirit to soar!
CHORUS
