I know that it must have been You Taking good care of me Only You could have known how I needed You so desperately I know it was Your hand of mercy Coming right out of the blue I was lost on my own and I know that it must have been You Lord I've been down But You picked me up in my weakest And helped me to see That the source of my strength is You And I know that it must have been You Taking good care of me Only You could have known how I needed You so desperately And I know it was Your hand of mercy Coming right out of the blue I was lost on my own and I know that it must have been You
