If Not For God Where Would I Be

If Not for God…  Where Would I Be?
If not for God, I wouldn’t
be here today!
May he be honored
in what I do and say!

If not for God, I’m not sure where I’d be.
I’d be lost today and
 for eternity!

If not for him staying close to my side…
I wouldn’t survive the evil tide!

If not for his love being faithful and true…
I don’t know what in the
world I’d do!

If not for his son who
 bled and died…
I’d have no chance to be sanctified!

If not for his son who died for me…
I’d be like a ship lost at sea!

Thank you my God, for being there!
Thanks for taking 
the time to care!

Thanks for this, and so
 much more!
You make life worth living for!
