Thank You Lord
Amber Bullock Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tragedies are common place
All kinds of diseases
People are slipping away
The economy's down
People can't get enough pay
As for me all I can say is
Thank You Lord for all You've done for me
Folks without homes
Living out in the streets
And the drug habit some say
They just can't beat
Muggers and robbers
No place seems to be safe, Lord
But You've been my protection
Every step of the way, I wanna say
Thank You Lord for all You've done for me

It could have been me
(Thank You)
Outdoors
(Thank You)
With no food
(Thank You)
And no clothes
(Thank You)
Or all alone
(Thank You)
Without a friend
(Thank You)
Or just another number
(Thank You)
With a tragic end
(Thank You, oh!)
But you didn't see fit
(Thank You)
To let none of these things be
(Thank You)
Cause everyday by Your power
(Thank You)
You keep on keepin' me
(Thank You)
And I wanna say
(Thank You Lord for all You've done for me)
Hey hey hey!

It could have been me
(Thank You)
Outdoors
(Thank You)
With no food
(Thank You)
And no clothes
(Thank You)
All by myself
(Thank You)
Without a friend
(Thank You)
Or just another number
(Thank You)
With a tragic end
(Thank You, oh!)
But You didn't see fit
(Thank you)
To let none of these things be
(Thank You)
Cause everyday by Your power
(Thank You)
You keep on keepin' me
(Thank You)
And I wanna say
(Thank You Lord for all You've done for me)
And I wanna say
(Thank You Lord for all You've done for me)
And I wanna say
(Thank You Lord for all You've done for me)

(I wanna thank You for Your love)
Thank You
(Thank You for Your power)
Thank You
(For Your protection)
Thank You Lord
(Every hour)
Thank You!

(I wanna thank You for Your love)
Thank You
(Thank You for Your power)
Thank You
(For Your protection)
Thank You Jesus!
(Every hour)

I wanna thank You for Your love
(Thank You)
Thank You for Your power Lord
(Thank You)
Thank You for protecting me Jesus
(Thank You)
Every hour
(Thank You)

Thank You for Your love

I have come through trials and tribulations
and I still want to thank You, Lord.
My trials have only come
to get me to trust only You,
to make me strong
in Your strength.
I just want to thank You, Lord,
for Your strength
You have provided for me.
I just want to thank You, Lord.
How can I ever thank You enough
for all that You have done for me?

I was a poor lost sinner,
but you died to save me.
I deserved to die on the cross,
but You went there in my place.
I deserved the wages of sin
which is death,
but You gave to me
the gift of eternal life instead.
I just want to thank You, Lord.
How can I ever thank You enough
for all that You have done for me?
