The Organ Donor Song
The Greatest Gift Of Love
By: David P. Kawika Crowley
"The Organ Donor Song" (The Greatest Gift Of Love)
Dear Friend... I have been and organ donor since 1977. I have been a professional songwriter for over 40 years... it took me over 20 years to write a song about this delicate and emotional dynamic of organ donation. It was written for one sole purpose... to help spread the awareness of the great need for Organ Donation throughout the world. Too many are passing on needlessly every day. One fateful day, it may be you... in desperate need of an organ... your living may depend solely on the generosity of someone you don't even know. Please make copies and pass this song on to as many friends and loved ones as you know, especially to those who have lost someone precious, but who had the courage and strength to pass on new life to someone else in need, who otherwise would have passed on. This song is NOT to be sold in any way, shape, or form. Please remember... in death, there still can be life. Give life... it is The Greatest Gift Of Love. Aloha, David
Just a note: In 1998, Dave wrote this song... a few years later he dedicated the song to the worldwide movement to help increase
Organ Donor Membership... since then he has given away thousands of CD's to people from Pakistan, India,
Malaysia, Japan, Canada, and all over USA and Europe... in his 40 year songwriting career he has been a part
of a number of songs that have turned into classics in the Hawaii music business, specifically "Hula Lady" which he
co-wrote with the legendary producer/writer, Gordon Broad, as well as "Hawaii 78" which he co-wrote and which has
become world famous, made popular by the icon, the late great Bro. IZ ("Facing Future" album--Platinum). But Dave
holds this song about organ donation most dearest to his heart, as the most touching and beautiful song he has
ever written... please take it to heart... please become an Organ Donor... please Give Life.
Become an Organ Donor...Give Life!

"Organ Donation In Song"..."Here, Crowley conveys the importance of organ donorship with
a simple but effective arrangement...the lyrics establish the
parallel between leaving the gift of a family heirloom to a loved
one...and leaving the "gift of love" of organ donation to someone
who would die without it"
