The Greatest Gift Lyrics - Sufjan Stevens

Praise the mountain and the rain 

All the gifts that still remain 

But the greatest gift of all 

And the law above all laws 

Is to love your friends and lovers 

And lay down your life for your brothers 

As you abide in peace 

So will your delight increase 

As the mystery of the cross 

Asa Lovejoy lost the toss 

And the fountain in the rain 

Where my sorrow still remains 

So I run to my friends and lovers 

I lay down my life for my brothers 

As I abide in peace 

So will my delight increase
