When I Think About You
R. Kelly Lyrics

When I wake up in the morning time and see the sun I say
I express gratitude for another day of life when I wake up and see the sun.

Hallelujah, thank you Jesus for waking me up today
I praise Jesus for waking me up today with the word Hallelujah and a thank you.

I think about his goodness and the wonderful things he's done
I reflect on Jesus' kindness and the amazing things he has done.

Forgiving me, setting me free and casting my sins away
Jesus has forgiven me, set me free, and removed my sins from me.

And soon as I was about to fall you stepped right in on time
Just as I was about to fail, you rescued me on time, Jesus.

Picked me up, and let me know you had nothing but love for me
You picked me up and assured me that you love me unconditionally, Jesus.

And those lonely nights when I thought that I gonna lose my mind (my mind)
During those lonely nights when I was losing my mind, you kept me company, Jesus.

Lord, You were my company
You were my companion, Lord.

And now I feel joy (when I think about you)
When I think about you, Jesus, I feel joy.

I feel strength (when I think about you)
Thinking about you, Jesus, gives me strength.

No pain (when I think about you)
You take away my pain, Jesus, when I think about you.

And no rain (when I think about you)
When I think about you, Jesus, the storms of life do not bother me.

I get glad (when I think about you)
Thinking about you, Jesus, brings me happiness.

And raise my hands (when I think about you)
I raise my hands in worship when I think about you, Jesus.

Shout your name (when I think about you)
I shout your name, Jesus, in praise when I think about you.

(When I think about you)
Reflecting on you, Jesus, is a constant source of joy and comfort for me.

And in the midst of the storm you were the shelter in my life
During the difficult times, you were my refuge and protection, Jesus.

Even though (I was doing wrong) and even though (I fell off)
Even when I was sinning and making mistakes, Jesus, you still helped me.

No-one can help me out, the way you helped me whenever I was in need
When I needed help, there was no one who could help me the way you did, Jesus.

When trouble was chasing, I was weak (mmm) you kept your hands on me
When trouble was coming after me, and I was weak, Jesus, you protected me.

My God you sacrificised you life that I might live for eternity
You sacrificed your life for me, Jesus, so that I can have eternal life.

Despite my faults, you heard my cry (yes you did) and forgave my inequity
Even though I have faults, Jesus, you hear me when I cry and forgive my sins.

No-one can understand, the way you understand when it comes to my heart
Nobody can understand my heart the way you do, Jesus.

Lord you gave me a brand new start
You gave me a fresh start, Lord, thank you.

Listen
Listen to me, because what I am about to say is important.

Even though your doubts will come (doubts will come)
Although doubts will arise, Jesus.

Believe he gave his only son (all of the world) to all the world
Believe that Jesus gave his only son to the whole world.

He chose to love (oh, yes he did) so how can we not (how can we not) send our praises up
Jesus chose to love us, so it is only right that we praise him.

Feel your presence (when I think about you)
I feel your presence, Jesus, when I think about you.

Coming over me (when I think about you)
Your presence is coming over me, Jesus, when I think about you.

Then I start to fall, yeah (when I think about you)
When I think about you, Jesus, I am overwhelmed and start to fall.

Down to my knees (when I think about you)
Thinking about you, Jesus, brings me to my knees in awe.

And begin to pray (when I think about you) Lord help me
I start to pray, Lord help me, when I think about you, Jesus.

Then I see the light (when I think about you)
When I think about you, Jesus, I see the light and the way forward.

Startin' to shine right through (when I think about you)
The light is shining through me, Jesus, when I think about you.

It's a brand new day (when I think about you)
When I think about you, Jesus, I realize it is a new day and there is hope.

And my heart's renewed (when I think about you)
Thinking about you, Jesus, renews my heart and spirit.

And all my fears are gone (when I think about you)
When I think about you, Jesus, all my fears disappear.

Away (when I think about you)
My fears go away, Jesus, when I think about you.

When my day looks cloudy (when I think about you)
When my day seems dark, Jesus, thinking about you gives me hope.

It's gonna be okay (When I think about you)
When I think about you, Jesus, I know everything is going to be alright.

How you gave me love (gave me love) (when I think about you)
When I think about you, Jesus, I am reminded of the love you gave me.

And I gave you nothing (gave you nothing) (when I think about you)
I realize that I gave you nothing in return, Jesus, when I think about you.

How you woke me up (hey!) (when I think about you)
When I think about you, Jesus, I remember how you woke me up.

And started me on my way (started me on my way) (when I think about you)
You started me on my path, Jesus, when I think about you.

See you did not have to do it (when I think about you)
Jesus, I understand that you did not have to do all that you did for me.

But you did it any old way (when I think about you)
You did it anyway, Jesus, despite not having to.

Any old, any old, any old way (when I think about you)
No matter how it happened, Jesus, you helped me anyway.

Yes you did, yes you did (when I think about you)
You helped me, Jesus, and that is all that matters, yes you did.

Hey-hey-hey-hey (when I think about you)
When I think about you, Jesus, I am filled with joy and excitement.

Oh yes (uh) (when I think about you)
Yes, Jesus, thinking about you is a wonderful thing.

(When I think about you)
Reflecting on you, Jesus, is a source of hope, strength, and joy for me.
