Life is a gift that I have twice received,
Fate intertwined with grace, all intertwined,
A precious chance to live I have achieved.

My soul was fleeting, barely here to breathe,
And yet the hands of God were oh so kind,
Life is a gift that I have twice received.

This world, it may be harsh, but I believe
In miracles that never leave our mind,
A precious chance to live I have achieved.

Like a phoenix, I have been retrieved,
From the clutches of fate that once entwined,
Life is a gift that I have twice received.

Though challenges will come, they can't deceive
The joy I have, knowing my life is divined,
A precious chance to live I have achieved.

So I hold dear this life, with heart unweaved,
And know my time on earth is intertwined,
Life is a gift that I have twice received,
A precious chance to live I have achieved.
