Lyrics
THANK YOU LORD
Music by Clarence J. Ferguson Jr. (bmi)
Lyrics by Laurie J. Leverette (bmi)
Intro:
Verse 1:
A few years ago
I had no hope
No where to turn
And all my bridges burned
I made some bad choices
Cuz I wanted to be down
But when I needed someone to help me out
Friends were no where to be found
But then one day
A stranger came my way
He said I have a friend that will lift you up
So take my hands lets pray
And now he?s the reason
The reason that I sing
He?s always there when I need him
And his love don?t cost a thing
And that?s why
Chorus:
I thank you lord for all the blessings that you gave me
Joy will come in the morning light
I thank you lord for sending your son here to save me
Everything?s gonna be all right
Verse 2:
Here I am
Standing on Holy Ground
I gave the Lord my life and he has turned it all around
Not ever do I worry
Not a tear comes from my eyes
Cuz Jesus hears my calling and he will not pass me by
No matter how bad the situation seems to be
He will calm the troubled waters
Bearing all burdens for me
But you must believe
Chorus:
Bridge:
If you?re tired of the troubles in your life
You need to talk with God and get it right
If you feel the need to curse you need to say a bible verse
Take a closer walk with God and put him first
(Repeat once)
Chorus:
