Bill & Gloria Gaither Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I then shall live as one who's been forgiven.
I'll walk with joy to know my debts are paid.
I know my name is clear before my Father;
I am His child and I am not afraid.
So, greatly pardoned, I'll forgive my brother;
The law of love I gladly will obey.

I then shall live as one who's learned compassion.
I've been so loved, that I'll risk loving too.
I know how fear builds walls instead of bridges;
I'll dare to see another's point of view.
And when relationships demand commitment,
Then I'll be there to care and follow through.

Your Kingdom come around and through and in me;
Your power and glory, let them shine through me.
Your Hallowed Name, O may I bear with honor,
And may Your living Kingdom come in me.
The Bread of Life, O may I share with honor,
And may You feed a hungry world through me.





Amen, Amen, Amen

Some time in 2015 we got stuck in the bush near Congo.
We had gone for work.
We were so scared and hopeless.
We kept reminding ourselves of how blessed we were with this song throughout the night.
The following day my husband,then fiance, came through to rescue us.
I couldn't hesitate sharing this song to him.
And since then it's been our family anthem.
We sing it daily.
Our 3 year old daughter has learnt it and sings along.
We tend to ignore the many blessings God has given us ,most of the time.
I know 2020 is a tough year but we still thank God for his blessings on our lives.

While the world looks upon me
As I struggle alone
And they say I have nothing
But they are so wrong
In my heart I'm rejoicing
And how I wish they could see
Thank You Lord
For Your blessings on me
There's a roof up above me
I've a good place to sleep
There's food on my table
And shoes on my feet
You gave me Your love Lord
And a fine family
Thank You Lord
For Your blessings on me
I know I'm not wealthy
And these clothes, they're not new
I don't have much money
But Lord I have You
And that's all that matters
Though the world may not see
Thank You Lord
For Your blessings on me
There's a roof up above me
I've a good place to sleep
There's food on my table
And shoes on my feet
You gave me Your love Lord
And a fine family
Thank You Lord
For all Your blessings on me

My family had been homeless since I was born. Am a third born with 8 siblings. We lived in abundoned houses from time to time, slept at church buildings secretly, had no food nor shelter. Got thrown out of rental houses many times due to lack of payment of rent and even slept outside. Our father walked out of our lives when we were refugees in another town due to tribal clashes in 2007_2008. But God is faithful, 2016 a Miracle happened and mom bought us a place to live and even a built a house to shelter, we have got food on our table, clothing and most importantly shelter. Thank you God for your grace 🙏🙏
