Lyrics God Favored Me (Part I) - Hezekiah Walker

This is my testimony everybody
How God favored me in spite of my enemies
And if God did it for me he'll do the same thing for you
Don't worry about your haters
Your haters can't do nothing with you
Listen to these words

Love is patient, caring
Love is kind
Love is felt most (love is felt most when it's genuine)
But I've had my share of love abused, manipulated
And it's strength misused

And I can't help (and I can't help)
But give you glory (but to give God glory)
When I think about my story (when I think about my story)
Oh yeah y'all, I got a story to tell

And I know (and I know)
You favored me (you favored me)
Because my enemies (because my enemies did try)
(They did try) they couldn't triumph over me
But they couldn't triumph over me
Yes, they did try (yes they did try)
But it didn't work (but couldn't triumph over me)

I'm still here, I'm still alive, I'm still blessed
On my way to my destiny
Because the favor of God is on my life
Let me tell you about love

Love is patient, caring (love is patient)
Love is kind (love is kind)
Love is felt most when it's genuine
I had a whole lot of people in my life
(I've had my share of love abused, manipulated)
Who abused my love, they manipulated it
(And it's strength misused) and took the strength of it

And tried to misuse it (and I can't help but give you glory)
But I can't help but to give God glory today
When I think about my story (when I think about all I've been through)
And I still came out on the winning side

I don't know about you but I know that he favored me
Because my enemies, hmm, they did try
(But couldn't triumph over me) sing it, y'all
But they couldn't triumph over me (yes they did try)
'Cause great is He that is in me
That He that's in the world

They whispered (that's what they did)
Conspired (that's what they did)
They told their lies (they told a whole lot of lies)
But God favored me
My character (my character)
My integrity (my integrity)
My faith in God, He favors me

(But it would not fall) will not fall
(Would not bend) will not bend
(Won't compromise) won't compromise
God favored me (God favors me)
I spoke life and prosperity
I even spoke health (God favors me)
(God favors me) He favored me

They whispered (they whispered about me)
Conspired (they conspired against me)
They told their lies (they told a whole lot of lies on me)
But God favored me
My character (my character)
My integrity
My faith in God, He favors me

Will not fall (it would not fall)
Will not bend (not gon' bend)
(Won't compromise) won't compromise
God favored me (God favors me)
I speak life and prosperity (I speak prosperity)
And I speak health (and I speak health, God favors me)

They whispered (they whispered)
They conspired (conspired)
They told their lies (they told their lies)
But God favored me (God favors me)
My character (my character)
My integrity (my integrity)
My faith in God, He favors me

Everything was in question
But he favored me
I promised him that I wouldn't compromise
Although I was going through
And I spoke life and I spoke prosperity
And I spoke health

Say yes (yes)
Yes (yes)
Yes (yes)
God favors me

Say yes (yes)
Yes (yes)
Say yes (yes)
God favors me (God favors me)

Say yes (yes)
Yes (yes)
Say yes (yes)
God favors me (God favors me)

Say yes (yes)
Say yes (yes)
Say yes (yes)
I need some help, God been sayin', come in
