Dear God thank you for leadin' me down this path

I'm thankful for the man that I am
   Eb             F         
At first I didn't understand

Now I see the tribulations that I faced we're all part of the plan
  Eb                         F    
I tried to walk way I wasn't whole
                          Gm                            Bb  
You filled the gap inside heart and let me know I had a soul
                      Eb                  F  
I was bleedin' on the inside nobody could see
                       Gm                            Bb
Then I looked into the mirror he was starin' back at me
                Eb                      F

Used to think the world was cold and I was fightin' all alone
Gm                                                         Bb                
Until I made that call and heard his voice and touch right through that phone
Eb                        F                        
All my pain all my stress added to the dumb neglect
  Gm                                                 Bb            
I used to take my burdens and disperse 'em 'round to all my friends

Until you picked me up and took that weight right up off my chest

A child a God nothin' more nothin' less

        Eb                                F                 
I could fell the pressure buildin' up and chokin' at my neck
         Gm                                 G7     Eb               
Then God told me Take a breath and he would handle all the rest yeah

My life's an open book somethin' for the world to see
Gm                                          Bb
