Thank you Lord for saving my soul
Maybe I’ll play in the Super Bowl
I’m awfully excited about what I’ll get
A Mustang a Camaro or maybe a Vette
I wonder Lord if an automobile
Could actually be part of the deal
The payments enormous the insurance extreme
I can’t afford to buy coffee, sugar or cream
How shallow of me to think that you are
Given praise for the actions of a superstar
No tribulation is the way of the cross
Its trials, temptation, suffering and loss
Okay Lord, now watch me endure
I know that I am now quite mature
Enough is enough Lord when will it end
Don’t you think its time for my ship to come in?
Now I understand it, history will say
He was quite faithful, he walked in the way
He fought a good fight he finished his course
He rides into heaven on a great white horse
Lord you know I’m so alone
It’s seems I’m forgotten before I’m gone
You are my shield and my exceeding great reward;
My constant companion; my savior and Lord.
Now Lord I face life’s final test
What if there is not a land of peace joy and rest?
What if the story is just a crutch for the weak
To get them from the valley to the next peak?
What’s this I feel, it has an old familiar ring
The Sun of God rising with healing in his wings
I feel him now with me, I’m sure it’s the Lord
He tells me he loves me, to just trust his word
This is the deepest valley I’ve ever been in
But my faith is stronger than it’s ever been
I’m lifted up beyond all fear and doubt
I hear the angels singing and starting to shout
I sit in an arena alongside the heroes of faith
We applaud those that are still running the race
I see a new runner I never have met
I hear him say Lord I’m excited about what I’ll get.
A Mustang, Camaro or maybe a Vette
