Tragedies are commonplace
  All kinds of diseases, people are slipping away
  Economies down, people don't get
  Enough pay
  But as for me all I can say is
  Thank you Lord for all you done for me
    Folks without homes are in the streets
  And the drug habit some say
  They just can't beat
  Muggers and robbers, no place seems
  To be safe
  But you've been my protection every
  Step of the way
  And I want to say
  thank you Lord for all you've done
  For me hey?
    [Lead:] It could've been me
  [Chorus:] Thank you
  [L:] Outdoors
  [C:] Thank you
  [L:] With no food
  [C:] Thank you
  [L:] And no clothes
  [C:] Thank you
  [L:] All left alone
  [C:] Thank you
  [L:] Without a friend
  [C:] Thank you
  [L:] Or just another number
  [C:] Thank you
  [L:] With a tragic end
  [C:] Thank you
  [L:] But you didn't see fit
  [C:] Thank you
  [L:] To let none of these things be
  [C:] Thank you
  [L:] You keep on, keeping on, keeping me
  [C:] Thank you
  [L:] I wanna say
  [Chorus:] Thank you Lord for all you've done for me
    I wanna thank you for your love
  Thank you for your power
  Thank you for protection, every hour
  Thank you
