I Will Still Praise the Lord

I am broken 
and forsaken; 
from the sky 
fallen hard, 
but I will still praise the Lord, 
but I will still praise the Lord, 
but I will still praise the Lord. 

Born in sin, 
yet forgiven, 
by the blood of 
His only son, 
and I will hence praise the Lord, 
and I will hence praise the Lord, 
and I will hence praise the Lord. 

With the prophets 
is my prize, 
in the sufferings 
for Jesus Christ, 
and I will hence praise the Lord, 
and I will hence praise the Lord, 
and I will hence praise the Lord. 

From the waters 
to the ground 
he will turn my 
life around, 
and I will hence praise the Lord, 
and I will hence praise the Lord, 
and I will hence praise the Lord. 

I am broken 
and forsaken; 
from the sky 
fallen hard, 
but I will still praise the Lord, 
but I will still praise the Lord, 
but I will still praise the Lord. 

I am broken 
and forsaken; 
from the sky 
fallen hard, 
but I will still praise the Lord, 
but I will still praise the Lord, 
but I will still praise the Lord.
