That my Lord, my Lord has kept me
Yes it is
Just another day
That I've been in my saviors care
Yes it is
Wanna say through he do his loving
Arms al around me
Another day, I've been working in Gods vineyards
Another day, you know it kept me by your side
Another day, I knew just how hard you've been living
He said I want you to sit down and rest a while
When I get on home in my Gods kingdom
And he'll be there, be there with arms spread open
I'm gonna hear him saying, my servant welcome home

Here's is my best understanding of the lyrics.
Just another day that my Lord, my Lord has kept me, yes, it is.
Just another day that I've been in my savior's care, yes, it is.
I want to say he threw, he threw his loving arms all around me, yes, he did.
And there I found, I found peace and joy right there.
Just another day I've been working in God's vineyard,
Another day you know he kept me by his side
He said, "I know just how hard you've been laboring."
He said, "I want you to sit down and rest awhile."
When I get on home in my Lord's kingdom,
I'm going to sit down, I'm going to sit down all around the throne
And he'll be there, be there with arms spread wide open, yes, he will.
I'm going to hear him say, "My servant, welcome home." Oh, Lord!
Just another day I've been working in God's vineyard, yes I have.
Another day you know he kept me by his side.
He said, "I know just how hard you've been laboring."
He said, "I want you to sit down and rest awhile."

Yes it is
Just another day that I've been in my savior's care
Yes it is
Wanna say he threw, he threw his loving arms all around me
Yes he did
And there I found, I found peace, and joy right there
Another day, I've been workin' in God's vineyard
Oh yeah
Another day, you know He kept me by His side
He said "I know just how hard you've been laborin'"
Mm-hmm

All around the throne, oh lord
And he'll be there, be there with arms spread wide open
Yes he will
I'm gonna hear him say "My servant, welcome home"
Another day, I've been workin' in God's vineyard
Yes I have

You to, i think the kid is better
@Icybearg
now you do realize how powerful a song can be no matter who's being the device!
@COO415
I disagree. The kid is an old soul; you feel the pain of life in his voice. What a gift...wish him the best in life.
