Woke up this morning got out of my bed
I looked around here's what I said,
thank you Lord, for the blood You shed
You put a roof, up over my head
Thank you Lord, for another day
all these blessings, you send my way
Coulda been dead, in some lone some grave
But you told old death, you told him to get back and behave...

Ooooo Weeee Ooooo Weeee Another Blessing Another Blessing

I never seen, the righteous forsaken
Nor his seed, begging for bread
I can count on God, he won't let me down
He always do, just what he said
Pain and sufferin', he brought me through
Arms wide wide, he always welcome you
I've been blessed, in so many ways
I just wonna lift my hands, and give God all the praise

Ooooo Weeee Ooooo Weeee Another Blessing Another Blessing

I got my legs, and I can walk (Another blessing)
I got my tongue ya'll, and I can talk (Another Blessing)
Even the air that I recieve, (Another Blessing)
I got my lungs and I can breathe (Another Blessing)
When I looks around I can see, (Another Blessing)
all of the blessings, that he's given me (Another Blessing)
Bless my family their doing fine, (Another Blessing)
he gave me peace, gave me peace of mind (Another Blessing)
Thank God





Thank God (Another Blessing)
