Thank You Lord

Thank you Lord Thinking back upon my life When days were ever so bleak When nothing seemed to turn out right I was desperate and so weak Then you came along and helped me out You pulled me out of the fire And I thank you…Oh Lord For saving my life There were times in my life The world had beaten me down I never seemed to catch a break But, you’d always come around You’d always be there to lend a hand You pulled me out of the mire And I thank you…Oh Lord I’ll give you my life Chorus I want to thank you Lord, For always being there Through the bad times and the good I want to thank you Lord, For all you’ve given me It’s undeserved… it’s understood Through all my tragedies You showed you cared for me Through my mistakes and maladies You saw the good in me You’ve been with me through all my trials In my time of need You carried me the final mile You are a friend in deed You’d always be there to lend a hand You pulled me out of the mire And I’ll thank you…Oh Lord All through my life Chorus I want to thank you Lord, For always being there Through the bad times and the good I want to thank you Lord, For all you’ve given me It’s undeserved… it’s understood And I’ll thank you…Oh Lord All through my life And I’ll thank you…Oh Lord All through my life John Derek Hamilton Copyright August 18,2018
