Madiba - Kirk Franklin Lyrics

(Lalalalalala)
Mary Mary (thank you)
When I look back over my life (thank you)
And all the times you brought me through (thank you)
I just wanna say father, thank you
When I was lonely, and needed some one to hold me
You were beside me, when my nights were cold and lonely
You never let me down when no one else could be found I
Always count on you to see me through, I'm telling you that
You are the reason, I'm alive and I'm still breathing
For me you gave your life and now my life it has no meaning
When I think about your grace, and I finally see your face
There's one thing I need to say, wanna say, yeah
(Thank you, Lord, for loving me
Thank you, Lord, for keeping me
Thank you, Lord, for that day you came and broke the chains and set me free
Thank you for another chance, you gave me joy, now I can dance)
All the people open up your mouth and let me hear you say thank you (thank you), thank you (thank you)
(Thank you, Lord, for one more day, you made the raindrops go away
Thank you, 'cause my pain is gone, I know it came to make me strong
Thank you for another chance, you gave me joy, now I can dance)
All the people open up your mouth and let me here you say thank you (thank you), thank you (thank you)
(La) thank you (la la), thank you (la la) is he worth it? (la la la)
When I was lonely, and I needed some one to hold me
You were beside me, when my nights were cold and lonely
You never let me down when (no one else) no one else could be found, I
Always count on you to see me through, I'm telling you that
You are the reason, Jesus, I'm alive and I'm breathing (alleluia)
For me you gave your life, and now my life it has no meaning (listen)
Because of your grace (grace), I can see your face
Now I to do, there's just one thing I wanna say, gotta say, [sing it with me] yeah
(Thank you, Lord, for loving me [thank you]
Thank you, Lord, for keeping me [thank you, Jesus]
Thank you, Lord, for that day you came and broke the chains and set me free
Thank you for another chance, you gave me joy now I can dance)
All the people open up your mouth and let me hear you say thank you (thank you), thank you (thank you) (come on)
(Thank you, Lord, for one more day, you made the raindrops go away
Thank you, 'cause my pain is gone (you did it), I know it came to make me strong
Thank you for another chance, you gave me joy now I can dance)
All the people open up your mouth and let me here you say thank you (thank you), thank you (thank you)
