Imagine a month of Sundays 

Each one a cloudy day 

Imagine the moment the sun came shining through 

Imagine that ray of sunshine as you 

Remember your darkest hour 

With dawn still far away 

Remember the way that you longed for morning's light 

And think of yourself as a candle in the night 

Make believe this is the first day 

Everything all brand new 

Make believe that the sun is your own lucky star 

And then understand the kind of gift you are

The gift you are 

like the very first breath of spring 

The gift you are 

all the joy that love can bring 

The gift you are 

all of our dreams come true 

The gift you are 

the gift of you 

You are the promise of all the ages 

You are the Prodigal Son 

You are the vision of prophets and sages 

You are the only one 

Dream of a bright tomorrow 

Know that your dream will come true 

Carry your dream in a sparkling crystal jar 

Then you will know the kind of gift you are
