The greatest gift, the gift of life
The gift of love divine
God gave us all a special gift
He meant for it to shine
He meant for it to shine
The darkest night can be made light
By one bright word or smile
If we'd put on our neighbor's shoes
And choose to walk a mile
God gave us all our own free will
To choose the paths we take
No greater deed could e'er be done
Than for another's sake
The greatest gift, the gift of life
The gift of love divine
God gave us all a special gift
He meant for it to shine
He meant for it to shine
Shine on, shine on, for all to see
God's light inside your soul
Shine on, shine on, let love flow free
Warm others in its glow
Shine on, shine on, shine on
So hide it not or it will fade
Shine on, shine on, shine on
Shine on, shine on, shine on
The greatest gift, the gift of life
The gift of love divine
God gave us all a special gift
He meant for it to shine
Shine on, shine on, shine on
Got to say I like the original better, however this was a pleasant surprise

Dolly is a great singer and great singers can sing any song, doesn't matter who did it "first" a great singer will do it well.

Didn't know there was an original. A friend sent this to me after both my folks died. This was a ray of bluegrass sunshine for this Cali boy. Both versions are great - but gotta love how Dolly made this down home and personal. Beautiful.

I didn't know what to make of this at first, I thought she would butcher this song so bad, nice surprise that she didn't
