wanna say thank you

tragedies are common place

all kinds of diseases

people are slipping away

the economy's down

people can't get enough pay

as for me all i can say is

thank you lord for all you've done for me

folks without homes

living out in the streets

and the drug habit some say

they just can't beat

muggers and robbers

no place seems to be safe

but you've been my protection

every step of the way and i want to say

thank you lord for all you've done for me

it could have been me

outdoors

with no food

and no clothes

or just alone

without a friend

or just another number

with a tragic end

but you didn't see fit

to let none of these things be

cause everyday by your power

you keep on keepin' me

and i wanna say

hey hey hey!

thank you

thank you

thank you

thank you

jesus!

i wanna thank you for your love

thank you for power

thank you for protection

every hour

i wanna thank you for mercy

wanna thank you for so much grace

wanna thank you for loving me

i wanna say thank you

thank you

jesus!

thank you

lord!

thank you

jesus!

ain't nobody like you

thank you for holdin' me

thank you for lovin' me

thank you for keepin' me

thank you for leadin' me

thank you for guidin' me

thank you for protectin' me

thank you for lovin' me

hey

hey!

thank you.
