"DEAR GOD"

"Dear God" 

by Smokie Norful

[Verse 1:]

It feels so good to make it this far

And I didn't think I could take it so long

There were days I wanted to quit

I said surely this is it

But I held on

And I watched as so called friends turn and walk away

It hurt so much I didn't have words to say

But even when my day turns to night and nothing seems just right

Lord I thank you for, for my life

[Chorus:]

For my life, Lord I thank you

For every victory in you I've seen

And all the moments I know it was you who kept me

So I thank you for, for my life

[Verse 2:]

And I watched you take my family from there to here

And when times were a lil rough God I know you were near

And the moments I thought I failed I was reminded of your nails

So I held on

And if I never live to see another day

There is nothing I would change or take away

I've had so many ups

That they far out way my downs

Lord I thank you for my life

[back to chorus]

[Verse 3:]

I realized some didn't make it...

I could've been one of the ones who lost my way

And there were times Lord I know I almost went crazy

But I'm still here, with my life

[back to chorus]

It may not be all that I'd hoped for

And every dream has not yet been realized

But to see your face one day God

I know it's all gonna be worth it

[Verse 4:]

So I thank you

Thank you for every mountain every valley

God every thing you brought me through

Thank you!

I know I know it was you

Just wanna take the time to say thank you Jesus for my life
