I'm Grateful
Full Gospel Baptist Fellowship Mass Choir Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse 1
If you catch me on the street
And you ask me how I'm doing today
It doesn't take long
For my reply
For my heart guides
What I say
I appreciate just where I am
For I know where I could be
Two words describe my attitude
I'm grateful
For God's been good to me

Verse 2
Now I'm not fool to believe
That I made it on my own
God has been there all my life
For I couldn't make it on my own
I appreciate just where I am
I don't know where I could be
Two words, two words describe my attitude
I'm grateful
For God's been good to me

Chorus
I know my life is an expression
Of Your goodness and Your grace
Mercy and love
Makes my life possible
That is why I'll always say




I'm grateful
For all You've done for me

I remember playing this song over and over at age 18 in my dorm room. I'd have my headphones on and play it in the dark....and bawl, praising God. Hearing it again 13 yrs later....all over again. Smh
