smokie norful dear god

verse 1

it feels so good to make it this far
and i didn?t think i could take it so long
there were days i wanted to quit
i said surely this is it
but i held on
and i watched as so called friends turn and walk away
it hurt so much i didn?t have words to say
but even when my day turns to nite and nothin seems just rite
lord i thank u for, for my life

(chorus)
for my life, lord i thank u
for every victory in u ive seen
and all the moments i know it was u who kept me
so i thank u for, for my life

verse 2
and i watched you take my family from there to here
and when times where a lil ruff god i know u were near
and the moments i thot i fail i was reminded of your nails
so i held on
and if i never live to see another day
there is nothing i would change or take away

ive had so many ups
that they far out way my downs
lord i thank u for my life

(bac up top to chorus)

verse 3
i realized some didn?t make it..
i couldve been one of the ones who lost my way
and there was times lord i knw i almost went crazy
but im still here ,with my life

(bac up top!)

itr may not be all that i hope for
and every dream has not yet been realized
and to see your face one day god
i knw its all gonna be worht it

yeaeaaa!!!
yeaaaa!!!!!?

verse 4

thank u for every mt. every valley god every thing u brought me thru
thank u!

jus wanna take the time to say thank u jesus for my life
