The Perfect Gift

I know I'm not perfect, I admit it all the time,
But I know that God is working on me, working in my life--
God knows I make mistakes and I reap the consequences,
But every day I strive to be a person who blesses

I'm not perfect, but God gave me a perfect gift:
He gave me the Holy Ghost, He gave it to me to live!
Jesus is the perfect One, He's the perfect gift Who lives in me!
I will go and give, I will go and give wherever He leads...

I know I'm not perfect, I admit it all the time
But I know that God is working on me, working in my life
God knows I have dreams and I reach for successes
And every day I strive to be a person who blesses

I'm not perfect, but God gave me a perfect gift:
He gave me the Holy Ghost, He gave it to me to live!
Jesus is the perfect One, He's the perfect gift Who lives in me!
I will go and give, I will go and give wherever He leads...
I will go and give, I will go and give wherever He leads...

Speaking in tongues, praising and worshipping Jesus in the Spirit is His essence:
Entering the holy of holies, that timeless place in the present, in His presence!

"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning."
                     James 1:17

"...Men and brethren, what shall we do?
"Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
"For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.
"And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation."
