This song is taken from the book of Ruth, chapter 1, and might be used at services where this scripture is a focus, as a closing hymn or for weddings/celebrations of life partnerships. The song was originally written to celebrate the 40th anniversary of a couple who had used this scripture passage at their wedding.
I wrote this song as part of the 12 song challenge to write a song about God's generosity. I wanted to convey the reality from 1 chronicles 29.14 that everything we have is a gift from God and we simply return to Him what is His already. In verse 2 I also allude to God's provision of a ram as a substitute for Isaac, and our need for God to provide the perfect sacrifice of His Son for us to be in relationship with God.
