Lyrics Dear God - Smokie Norful

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've watched as so called friends turn and walk away
And it hurts so much I didn't have words to say
But even when my day turns to night and nothing 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, Lord 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 (thank You, Jesus)
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's nothing 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 for the moments, God I know You kept me, yeah
Lord, I just 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 were times, Lord, I knew I almost went crazy
But I'm still here, oh, with my life

So, for my life, Lord, I thank You
For every victory in You I've seen
And for the moments and I know, I know You kept me
Yes Lord, it was You who kept me
So I thank You, thank You Jesus for, for my life

It may not be all that I hope for
And every dream has not yet been realized
But to see Your face one day, God
I know it's all gonna be worth it, yeah, yeah

Lord, so I thank You for, thank You for every mountain, every valley
God, every, everything that You brought me through, thank You for-
I know, I know it was You, God
I just wanna take the time to say thank You, Jesus, for my life

Oh, thank You Jesus for my life
