[Verse 1]
Before the day we met, I heard many things about You
People told me You loved me, I had to know how true
Or erroneous it was, in my loneliness, I rushed
But You sought me first before I sought You out and found You
They said You were hard to reach, but now I truly see
That You were pursuin' me way before I knew it'd be
You an' me, renewin' me from speakin' gloomily
Introducin' me to Your family approvingly
Sometimes, I still wonder why You ended up choosin' mе
I was lost, but You said You never intendеd on losin' me
I went from thoughts of suicide to thoughts of You and I
And our new lives unified together, never to divide
Got a new attitude, can't measure the magnitude
Of my infinite gratitude for Your perfect attributes
Only You could fill my void and never disappoint
Just because I love You, a couple people still avoid
[Chorus 1]
Thank You for that knock at my place
Put an end to my rough somber days
On that one summer day when my pains got erased
Helped me to live the proper way
As I wait to be in Your embrace
Now I'm safe, so I just wanna say
Thank You! (Thank You!) Thank You! (Thank You!)
Thank You! (Thank You!) Thank You! (Thank You!)
[Verse 2]
I'll never forget the night I fell in love with You
You fixed my corrupted views as we discussed it through
Started when the night was calm, You lifted high my arms
Gave me a new outlook on the life I once tried to harm
Met me at my lowest, the key that made me open up
You turned my life around, connected in that potent touch
Such love, I didn't deserve it, I wasn't worth it
But when I felt worthless, You gave me purpose
So I'll be holdin' Your hand until I'm old an' can't stand
'Cause when I thought I couldn't, You told me I can
Consolin' me when I craved a rope an' to hang
From my throat an' to send a note to folk an' to friends
But there was hope even then, an' when doped up with grams
I was alone, You extended Your help, broken, You mend-
Ed me...so thank You for unfoldin' Your plan
For the resolve You began and for moldin' a man
[Chorus 1]
Thank You for that knock at my place
Put an end to my rough somber days
On that one summer day when my pains got erased
Helped me to live the proper way
As I wait to be in Your embrace
Now I'm safe, so I just wanna say
Thank You! (Thank You!) Thank You! (Thank You!)
Thank You! (Thank You!) Thank You! (Thank You!)
[Verse 3]
Thanks for giving me the power to flush those drugs
When deep inside me, I felt that rush, those tugs
Then felt Your arms around me when there was no hug
You crushed my grudges like I would crush those buds
With baums in my palms as I would crush those rocks
I thought I was doomed, but You crushed those odds
You gave warmth to my cold heart, shine to my shade
When I was down & out, You put a smile on my face
Filled me with joy, who knew I'd ever burst laughin'?
Lackin' nothin', You're the only treasure worth havin'
The Only One I don't have to guard my heart from
Your love was the answer to all of my problems
I was solemn and only it could've softened
How hardened my heart had gotten, darkened and rotten
Distraughtly walkin', internally hateful
So You are forever loved, I'm eternally grateful
'Cause of what You did for me and showed me one night
Found out just how much Your love flowed for me in spite
Of me hurting You, 'cause I was supposed to have died!
So thank You, GOD...I owe You my life!
[Chorus 2]
Thank You for all the love that You gave
Thank You for the price that You paid
Sacrifice that You made to set my life straight
Without You, my whole life was a waste
As I wait to be in Your embrace
Now I'm safe, so I just wanna say
Thank You! (Thank You!) Thank You! (Thank You!)
Thank You! (Thank You!) Thank You! (Thank You!)
[Chorus 3]
Thank You for having got me amazed
From this world, wanted to plot an' escape
Thought I gotta hate, I just got a lotta aches
Now I love, only You saw my fate
As I wait to be in Your embrace
Now I'm safe, so I just wanna say
Thank You! (Thank You!) Thank You! (Thank You!)
Thank You! (Thank You!) Thank You! (Thank You!)
[Chorus 4]
And so I testify to Your grace
Answered me, that is why I now praise
You died for three days, I rely on You raised
And so I apologize today
As I wait to be in Your embrace
Now I'm safe, so I just wanna say
Thank You! (Thank You!) Thank You! (Thank You!)
Thank You! (Thank You!) Thank You! (Thank You!)
[Outro]
Yeah, and I can just keep on goin..
I just wanna thank You like Don Moen...
Thank You.. thank You
