Lord,
I’m so weary, my nerves are frayed
a blaming spirit I’ve oft displayed
but through it all, I know you’ve stayed
thank You, Lord, for loving me
thank You, Lord, for loving me
 
I’ve been tested from head to toe
since July second, but that You know
and there are more tests to undergo
thank You, Lord, for holding me
thank You, Lord, for holding me
 
My tongue’s been sharp, my tone’s been worse
a look from me could fetch a hearse
sometimes I start thinking it’s all a curse
thank You, Lord, for helping me
thank You, Lord, for helping me
 
I awoke this morning, saw the bright sun
reminding me this battle’s been won
for You gave us Your only Son
thank You, Lord, for redeeming me
thank You, Lord, for redeeming me
 
My strength’s returning, I’m less uptight
because You talked with me tonight
sharing that my future’s bright
thank You, Lord, for saving me
thank You, Lord, for saving me
