Lyrics:
I wanna thank You, Heavenly Father
For shining Your light on me;
You sent me Someone who really loves me
And not just my body
He keeps me happy, so very happy, he loves me;
I don't know how to be...
It's been a long time since I had someone who loves me;
I owe my thanks to Thee
I know it could not happen without Your love;
Without Your love
It took a long time for it to happen
But I knew those nights I prayed
That You would send me someone who's real
And not the one for play
I kept the faith and didn't worry;
My nights grew longer than the days
Until one day, it really happened:
He sent true love my way
I know it couldn't have happened without You;
Without You
When the time is right, He'll fill your life with love and care;
Believe, and He'll be there
Just do all right, don't do no wrong, and keep the faith
The Lord will shine His light your way
Thank You, Father
For shining Your light on me;
I prayed a long time for it to happen;
I did 'cause I believe
He makes me happy, so very happy;
I don't know how to be
It's been a long time since I had someone who loves me;
I owe my thanks to Thee
I know it couldn't have happened without You;
Without You
I know it couldn't have happened without Your love;
(My nights were long and blue, until He sent me you...)
Without Your love
I know it couldn't have happened without You;
(My nights were long and blue, until He sent me you...)
Without You
I know it couldn't have happened without You;
(My nights were long and blue, until He sent me you...)
Without You
I know it couldn't have happened without You;
(My nights were long and blue, until He sent me you...)
Without You
