I Thank You Lord

Words and music by Larry Holder / Elton Smith · 1998

Key of G · 74 BPM · 4/4 · Praise

Verse 1

I thank you, Lord, for loving me
though I was stained with sin.
For you came and died upon a tree
that I may live again.
I thank you Lord for promising
a home in Heav'n above,
Where I'll see Your face and offer praise
For Your abiding love.

Chorus 1

You gave your life to ransom me,
To break sin's bond and set me free;
I'll never cease to sing Your praise
For all eternity.

Verse 2

I thank you, Lord, for giving me
The strength to live each day,
As I seek to live my life for You,
And walk the narrow Way.
Lord, when I B7fail, I know You're there:
You promise not to leave.
With Your guiding hand, once more I stand;
Your mercy A7I receive.

Chorus 2

Your love is all I'll ever need.
By grace alone my soul is free.
I'll praise you while on earth I live
And all eternity.

Ending

You gave your life to ransom me,
To break sin's bond and set me free;
I'll never cease to sing Your praise
For all eternity.
For all eternity!
