Thankful

When you see me and tears are falling from my eyes
 its because I'm thankful, thankful
 and you see me dancing around and you're wondering why
 (It's because I'm thankful) it's because I'm thankful
 For when I think about your goodness
 And all the ways you've made for me
 I did nothing to deserve it
 It's just you keep blessing me
 And without your tender mercy
 I don't know where I would be
 Makes me say I'm thankful, (to everything you've done Jesus) thankful
 I'm thankful (anybody in this room tonight)
 It's because I'm thankful (listen here)
 When I remember where I was and where I am right now
 It makes me say I'm thankful, thankful (listen)
 The lord lifted my hands when I felt like throwing in the towel
 Lord that's why I'm thankful [lord that's why I'm thankful]
 Cause you were not there when my life was hurting but
 somehow god he brought me though (yes he did)
 And what the enemy meant for my evil god you turned it around for my good
 And there never was a moment when you left my there alone
 Ooo that's why I'm thankful
 (any thankful people in this room today?) thankful
 (I'm so thankful) it's because I'm thankful
 (For the times you've stood by me) for the times you've stood by me
 (When all around) when all around I walked away
 And the sins I committed against you Jesus
 Because of the blood lord you forgave me
 (Thank you lord) thank you lord for every blessing, and new mercy every day
 Thankful (yes lord I am) thankful
 (I need to know how many thankful people are in this
 room can say I'm thankful)
 (If you're really thankful come on someone tell him
 again) it's because I'm thankful, thankful
 (Come on tell him) it's because I'm thankful
 Thankful 13x
 It's because I'm thankful
