Now you see it's been such a long, long time
I can hardly read and remain constant to say something
Improbable this is it impossible rhyme;
but I 've got something to say, hey, hey
Gonna praise ya God always
Yahweh, Yahweh
You're blessed you and I and I may not be the best and I want to be a witness;
Lord I am blessed to be oh, I wanna be a witness
to tell the world of all your goodness and mercy Lord
To show the world you are bountiful, plentiful provider Oh! Lord
So many blessings have provided for me I'm so unworthy and I thank you Lord
So many blessings have provided for me I'm so unworthy and I thank you Lord
