LORD, I'M THANKFUL
Hylander Singing Men
Lately I've been through some testing and trials,
Felt like a detour that went on for miles,
But standing here now looking back I can say, "Lord, I'm thankful."
Some storms I thought I would never survive,
But here I am feeling so strong and alive,
The darkness is past and the morning is bright, and I'm thankful.
Lord, I'm thankful like David after Goliath,
Like Paul and Silas after the jail,
I'm thankful like Daniel after the lions.
Lord, I'm thankful.
Thankful like Noah back on dry ground,
Thankful like Lazarus finally unwound.
Every beat of my heart wants to pound
I'm thankful, Lord, I'm thankful!
I've battled giants of failure and fear,
Shadows of doubt where my hope was unclear.
But all along Lord, You were hovering near, and I'm thankful.
All of my sins were a thundering roar,
That echoed the guilt that I could not ignore,
But it's nailed to a cross and I hear it no more, and I'm thankful!
Lord, I'm thankful like David after Goliath,
Like Paul and Silas after the jail,
I'm thankful like Daniel after the lions.
Lord, I'm thankful.
Thankful like Noah back on dry ground,
Thankful like Lazarus finally unwound.
Every beat of my heart wants to pound
I'm thankful, Lord, I'm thankful!
Lord, I'm thankful like David after Goliath,
Like Paul and Silas after the jail,
I'm thankful like Daniel after the lions.
Lord, I'm thankful.
Thankful like Noah back on dry ground,
Thankful like Lazarus finally unwound.
Every beat of my heart wants to pound
I'm thankful, Lord, I'm thankful!
I'm thankful, Lord... I'm thankful!
