Thank You

There were nights where I was sure

I wouldn't see the morning sun

And there were days that seemed so dark

I couldn't wait for night to come

I couldn't stand to think about how my life used to be

And how without a single warning

It all slipped away from me

And like a fool I thought that I could fight

The shadows on my own

To the dark I was no stranger

But this was stronger than I'd known

And by the time I knew that I was in too deep, I'd gone too far

And the light that used to guide me

Had faded from my heart

And I found myself in places I thought I'd never go

Surrounded by strangers, I was so far from home

And I don't know how you found me

All I know is I owe everything to you

Yes, I do

And I thank you for my heart

I thank you for my life

And I thank God for grace and mercy

And that you became my wife

I'm seeing for the first time

The stars, the sun and moon

But they've got nothing on the power

Of this love I have for you

And I thank you, I thank you

Mmm

Now people say they'll stand beside you

They swear they'll never leave

But when the rain started falling

You know it only fell on me

And it was hard to keep believin' in myself

When all I felt was so much pain and guilt and shame

I couldn't even ask for help

I don't know if I believe in other lives, but when you came

There was something so familiar

About the way you said my name

And the whole world started turning

And I swear that I'd been born again, brand new

And it's all because of you

And so I thank you for my heart

I thank you for my life

And I thank God for grace and mercy

And that you became my wife

I'm seeing for the first time

The stars, the sun and moon

But they've got nothing on the power

Of this love I have for you

And I thank you, ooh, oh, yeah

And I've seen so many things that I just can't explain

But the miracle of miracles is how with your love I was saved

And I thank you, I thank you for my life

And I thank God for grace and mercy

And that you became my wife

And I'm seeing for the first time

The stars, the sun and moon

But they've got nothing on the power

Of all this love I give to you

And I thank you for my heart

I thank you for my life

I thank God for grace and mercy

And that you became my wife

The day I started breathing

Was the day you took my hand

And till the day I die

Baby, I'll forever be your man

And I thank you, I thank you

Ooh, yes, I do

Oh, don't you know that I thank you

Ooh, mmm
