The Story

It’s easy to get caught up in the constant chase for the next purchase, achievement, or milestone to finally bring us happiness. We spend so much time focusing on what we don't have that we become blind to the miraculous blessings right in front of us. Best Gift on Earth serves as a reality check for the busy, overwhelmed soul. This song points your eyes away from temporary, material things and refocuses them on the true, enduring gifts of God: the breath in our lungs, daily grace, the love of family, and the ultimate gift of salvation. It challenges us to step off the treadmill of modern consumer culture, take a deep breath of gratitude, and realize that life's greatest treasures have already been freely given to us.
