Early one Sunday morning A thought came in my mind Where would I be If the Lord himself had never turn back the time I would still be lost In the state that I was in If the hand of God would've never come along And brought me out of sin But when the devil thought he had me I sure got away As a result of my gratitude There's one thing that I can say is Lord I thank ya Chorus Lord I thank you for, For your loving grace Lord I thank you for, (New mercies Everyday oh Lord) Lord I thank you for, For the Victory Lord I thank you for, (Everything you've done for me) Verse 2 I stand here contemplating About the trials that I have faced I never would have made it this far Without his amazing grace When I felt that I could keep myself You kept me safe thus far
And I'll testify to all the world That you alone are God But when the devil thought he had me I sure got away, As a result of my gratitude There's one thing that I can say Lord I thank ya Chorus Lord you give me strength (and power) To go through every (every hour) I cast on you (my cares) My burdens you (will bare) Repeat Theres nobody Nobody like Jesus Repeat Ad Lib I came that you might, That you might have life That you might have life, More abundantly I came because I love ya, Came because i care I Came cause I keep you, Came and I'm always there I looked toward the left, Looked toward the right I couldn't find nobody, to help me fight this fight I looked toward heaven Looked toward heaven Mary's little baby Mary's little baby
