Shawanda Smith - You Kept Me Lyrics

Thank you for looking out for me
When I was too blind to see I was falling, falling slipping away
Thank you for keeping me, under your wings of love where you held me, held me dearly

I was longing for something that only you could provide
But instead, I went, searching
Running from here to there confused because it felt like no one cared
But you were watching over me

Thank you for looking out for me
When I was too blind to see I was falling, falling slipping away
Thank you for keeping me, under your wings of love where you held me, held me dearly

See it seemed like everything I tried
Wouldn't work out for m and now I see why
Lord you know what is best for me
Each time id hear you call my name
Crazy to think that I could play games
But I thank you for your mercy on me

Thank you for looking out for me
When I was too blind to see I was falling, falling slipping away
Thank you for keeping me, under your wings of love where you held me
Held me dearly

Walking after the things of this world
Enticed by the riches they've possessed
Being persuaded by the lusts of my own flesh
God you opened my eyes to see
Those things are all temporary
And could not compare to your glory!

You kept me
Hallelujah, hallelujah, Lord You kept me
You kept me
