Giving A Way
by Roger Montgomery ã
Jesus came to this earth
It was a world He had made
But He turned it over to us
He was always giving away.
Love is always giving
This is the greatest Way
Jesus was love, you can tell
He was always giving away.
I know my mother loved me
I didnt have to hear her say
She didnt have to use words
She was always giving away.
Watch a mother tending her children
Watching over them as they lay
Giving her self into exhaustion
Always giving away.
Watch a father out working
Exhausted at the end of a day
Watch where his payday goes
Hes always giving away.
Watch a little girl hug her mother
Give her the present she has made
Watch her watch for her approval
Her love she is giving away.
Around the world it is repeated
Over and over each day
The universal desire of man is love
For those they love they give away.
Jesus gave up His glory in heaven
Came to earth one glorious day
Showed us what God is like
Always giving away.
You cant stay away from those you love
Jesus will be returning to us one day
Hes going to rule this earth
Hes always giving away.
God is looking to the future
Hes always looking for a new day
Looking at what we will become
Gods love is being given away.
In the future we may realize
On Jesus our sins have all been laid
The world turned down a gift from heaven
Gods love we gave away.
Jesus hung on a cross bleeding
To the world His love was displayed
I guess God was bloody right
It was a dead give away.
He gave the sun to warm us
The food we eat every day
Everything we need to survive
Jesus is still giving away.
We can see the flowers
In their beauty so arrayed
God has decorated the world just for us
Jesus is still giving away.
A farmer may raise a crop
With money we call it paid
But no one has ever created anything
Yet Jesus is still giving away.
Look at the great universe
Show me one thing you have made
Man can only rearrange
What Jesus is giving away.
God, I would like to ask you
But Im somewhat afraid
Isnt there anything else you can do
While youre in the mood to give away?
You made a world so beautiful
And for a while it stayed
Weve taken the things you have created
And just about given it away.
Well, I hope you know what youre doing
Youre inviting us to heaven on that day
Your love is out of this world
Cause Youre always giving away.
You say you still love us
I guess I would say
Something must have motivated You
Cause Youre always giving a Way.
Jesus gave food to the hungry
Salvation to those gone astray
Everywhere He went, people were blessed
Jesus was always giving away.
Her gave wine to the wedding
Wine so good they were amazed
Come and taste that the Lord is good
Jesus was always giving away.
What has Jesus given to you?
Has He answered the prayers you prayed?
Theres millions who have discovered
Jesus is always giving away.
Jesus gave His ears to those who call
His heart to the children who played
The ones no one will listen to
To them Jesus is giving away.

Thats why Hes always giving away.
Look at the air you are breathing
You cant see it, theres no way
But like God, you can feel its presence
As you watch God giving away.

One that no one can take away

Send a little heaven to this earth today

Jesus gave deliverance to the demon possessed
They were in a clear mind just talking away
About the One who gave them freedom
And how Jesus was always giving away.
Jesus gave sight to the blind
He cured the lepers of His day

He didnt hide from the poor
He fed thousands in one day
He gave more than was needed

Jesus gave strength to the weak
The crippled jumped and walked away

What else could He give?
Tell Him the next time you pray
If you wonder whether He loves you
Just look at Him giving away.
Is this a secret that youre hearing?
If it were, Id have to say
Jesus would gladly show it to you
He was always giving away.
We were all lost in sin
All of us had gone astray
When we were hopeless and lost
God was giving a Way.
Jesus will always be giving
What more can I say?
He will keep giving, its His nature
Jesus is always giving away.
We have the nature of Jesus
If He is living in us today

He is always giving away.
Some people think Jesus cant save them
This is one time not to be dismayed
Its His pleasure to give you the kingdom
He is always giving away.
He gave His head so they could crown Him
With a crown of thorns on that day
People who give sometimes must suffer
But He Keeps giving away.
He gave His hands to those who nailed Him
To a cross on that day
We showed God how we can give too
But yet God is always giving any way.
Jesus came to give us the truth
He said, I Am, the Truth, the Way
He gave Himself to us completely
He is always giving away.
God looked down from heaven
As we crucified His son that day
Sometimes I have to wonder
Why He is always giving away.
Jesus sweated blood in the garden
He went through torment I guess youd say
He didnt want to be crucified
But He is always giving away.
Can this cup pass from me
Jesus asked as He knelt and prayed
God said theres no other Way
So Jesus kept giving a Way.
It is His nature, He never changes
For our sins He has completely paid
Everything He had He had to give
He gave Himself all the Way.
Jesus came to earth to save us
God said the bill has been paid
God gave us grace and mercy
And Jesus keeps giving away.
Just enjoy the blessings
The bill has already been paid
The checks been picked up by someone else
The One who is always giving away.
We are always sinning
But the bill has already been paid
It was paid in full by services rendered
Jesus is always giving away.

He gave His clothes to the soldiers
On the ground they gambled and played
He was asking nothing in return
He was always giving away.
He gave His back for our healing
With whips the soldiers did flay
With His stripes we are healed
He is always giving away.
He gave forgiveness to His tormentors
Cant you hear Him as He prayed?
Father, forgive them, He was praying
Jesus just kept giving away.
Youre hanging naked on a cross Jesus
What more can you pay?
Dont you understand youre dying?
What else can you give away?
But Jesus never quits giving
Like a flood He gives today
The windows of heaven have been opened
He is always giving away.
As He hung on the cross naked
He didnt have much more to give that day
But as He looked down on us
He was still giving away.
He saw His mother from the cross
He looked at her face so dismayed
As He looked down in love
His own mother He gave away.
He gave His Spirit to His Father
