<div dir="ltr">Karen you must have read my mind. Because I want to share the imagery of this song with someone who is struggling with the loss of a loved one, I had started to work on revisions. Love what you have done! For the last sentence "It is God who gives every one a life and God who takes<u> that </u>life away," works better for me. Try it and see what you think.<br>

<div>Hello Colleagues,<br>

<br>

I am trying to find the words to the song with the line "It is God who gives every man his life and God who takes his life away" <br>


<br>

</div>

I checked the only songbook I have titled "Songs For Those Who Care" and that song is not in it.<br>


<br>

</div>

Thanks,<br>
