Anyone know who wrote this song and what was its title?
I used to sing this in the Christian folk group, Manna, in Australia in the very early 1970s.
Thanks,
Bruce

To some He gave the gift of prophecy
To some He gave a song
To His children, He gives the gift of love
To share as they pass along.
Doubts and fears, they come from down below,
So when your way is dim.
Just look in the Book,
Remember when you look, your only pathway is Him.

Chorus:
If I live, well, praise the Lord.
If I die, well, praise the Lord.
If I live or die, my only cry will be,
Jesus in me, praise the Lord.
Jesus in me, praise the Lord.

The love He gives lasts for eternity,
Cast all your cares on him.
He died awful death to save you from sin,
And then He rose again.
The Christian life is more than a quality,
It's Jesus Christ the man.
It's saying Lord, I give my life to You.
It's saying, here I am.

Chorus

The Christian Life is more than a quality
It's Jesus Christ come in
It is saying Lord I give my heart to you.
Chorus

The Gift of Prophecy
To some he gave the gift of prophecy, to me He gave a song,
To His children He gave the gift of Love to pass as we pass along.
If I live well, Praise the Lord
If I die well, Praise the Lord
If I live or die or die my only cry will be
Jesus in me praise the Lord!

The Christian Life is more than a quality.
It is Jesus Christ come in
It is saying Lord Here I am
If I live well, Praise the Lord (Chorus)

Pls help with the full lyrics...
"To some He gave the gift of prophecy, To some He gave a song,
But to His child, He gave the gift of love.....
...Refrain: well if I live, I'll praise the Lord....
