Chi-Beze Erickson - Forever Grateful Lyrics

When I'm far from you, your hand could cover that distance.
Holy Spirit, the one who made me to act different
Cause you directed all my styles, now I'm flee
And I smile on the scene
And boy, you took the child out of me
LORD, roll with me so I could stand the heat of the days
Your glory's what I'll see someday
And you know that you my refuge; don't let me go astray
I know that you'll lead the way

When it feels like something missing and I'm distant
You always direct me to your love
And sometimes I be wishing to be different
But then you show me I'm from above
Help me to keep my commitments and to finish
What you started for me for the jump
I always gotta pitch into your business
New Jerusalem, we going up
But everytime I fall and then I mess up
I just look and find myself falling back in your hand
And every time I feel like I cant get up
I remember what it took for me to be your lamb
And every time I'm ridin', ridin', ridin' crazy
You still show up somehow and say to me my baby
Now all of my problems, I submit 'em to you daily
Wasn't on my plan to see your light until you saved me, Father

That's why I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
I'm forever grateful

I'ma take your song like a bird and start to hum it back
Given all the pain and the hurt, you kept the love intact
I'ma take a step in your word, it ain't no runnin' back
I'ma take a step in your word, it ain't no runnin' back
I'ma put my faith in you, Father
Gave me a name; a new collar
You gave me riches and you gave me true honor
All of the strength I got, it came from you, Abba
I didn't gain it through guala
I'm on a mission and I pray that you are the one that
Comes with me through it all I know
You don't leave me on my own
I done came, now my only goal
Keep you smiling on my roll
I know you rocking with me and we moving fast paced
When they set me up in last place, oh, my Dad stay
If any point you see the light, that's all thanks to Jesus Christ

When it feels like something missing and I'm distant
You always direct me to your love
And sometimes I be wishing to be different
But then you show me I'm from above
Help me to keep my commitments and to finish
What you started for me for the jump
I always gotta pitch in to your business
New Jerusalem, we going up
But everytime I fall and then I mess up
I just look and find myself falling back in your hand
And every time I feel like I cant get up
I remember what it took for me to be your lamb
And every time I'm ridin', ridin', ridin' crazy
You still show up somehow and say to me my baby
Now all of my problems, I submit it to you daily
Wasn't on my plan to see your light until you saved me, Father

That's why I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
That's why I'm forever grateful
I'm forever grateful
