Dear God

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 night and nothin' seems just right Lord, I thank You for, for my life For my life, Lord, I thank You For every victory in You I've seen And all the moments I know it was You who kept me So I thank You for, for my life And I watched you take my family from there to here And when times where a lil' rough, God, I know You were near And the moments I thought I'd fail, I was reminded of your nails So I held on And if I never live to see another day There is nothin' I would change or take away I've had so many ups that they far outweigh my downs Lord, I thank You for my life For my life, Lord, I thank You For every victory in You I've seen And all the moments I know it was You who kept me So I thank You for, for my life I realized some didn't make it I could've been one of the ones who lost my way And there was times, Lord, I knew I almost went crazy But I'm still here with my life For my life, Lord, I thank You For every victory in You I've seen And all the moments I know it was You who kept me So I thank You for, for my life It 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 know it's all gonna be worth it Yeah, yeah So I thank You, thank You for every mountain, every valley God, everythin' You brought me through, thank You I know, I know it was You Just wanna take the time to say thank You Jesus, for my life
