I Want To Thank You

(album: Let's Do It Again - 1975)

Cross my heart, and I don't hope to die
No more tears, because I don't have to cry
But this morning, I can see there is a brighter day

We become stronger because of sacrifice
Inspiration is what you gave to my life
It's true, the love of you, spiritual affection, lifelong protection
Jesus I just want to thank you, thank you

It's been fun, and all the things we've done
Through his footsteps, all the work has been done
Funky music will never destroy the faith and love we enjoy

Bless my soul! That it's not out of control
Makes it easy (make it easy) to release the world at its hold
Funky city, oh ain't it pretty, funky and witty, working for the boss, we carry the cross
Jesus I just want to thank you

(Give us this day)
He'll show you the way
Jesus is love, Jesus is love

Oh everybody napping, slapping hands and rapping
Keep trying to pull through
But for the love and protection
Where is the action, who will show you what to do?

And no longer and all because of you
Will we crawl on the back road of no can do
From now on, we travel the highway of sweet rejoice
We become stronger because of sacrifice
Inspiration is what you gave to my life

It's true, the love for you, spiritual affection, lifelong protection
Jesus I just want to thank you, thank you

Give us this day
He'll show you the way
Jesus is love, Jesus is love

It makes it kinda nice, with everyday life with these days seem kinda down
Helps you make, make a choice if you listen to my voice
You can find faith
Shop around, shop around

No longer, all because of you
Shall we crawl on the back road of no can do
From now on we travel the highway of sweet rejoice

We become stronger because of sacrifice
Inspiration is what you gave to my life
It's true, the love for you, spiritual affection, lifelong protection
(See the pretty city, oh ain't it pretty, funky and witty, working for the boss, we carry the cross, what do you do, Jesus is true
Spiritual affection, lifelong protection, give us this day)
