I?m So Glad I Don?t Have You?re Life

1st Verse:

I?ve made mistakes..
I?m selfish and I want my way
Head strong and proud
Barely getting by each day.

I?ve made a mess
Of everything I?ve tried to do
But He rescued me
And gave me what I need.

Chorus:

They say,? I?m so glad that I don?t have
Your life!?
They can?t see the miracle God?s given me.
For every trial and tribulation
That?s been set before me?
A hundred blessings I?ve received.
God?s worked through me!

2nd Verse:

I?ve been afraid
Doubt and Fear companions everyday.
Haunted by the past
I could not find my way.

I counted on
The only strength I?ve ever known
A strength much stronger
Than my own.

Chorus:

They say,? I?m so glad that I don?t have
Your Life!
They can?t see the miracle God?s given me.
For every trial and tribulation
That?s been set before me?
A hundred blessings I?ve received.
God?s worked through me!

3rd Verse:

I have worked hard
I?ve suffered and I?ve sacrificed
Still I could not find
Happiness or peace of mind.

I took my broken dreams
And laid them at my Savior?s feet
But He said, ?My child,
Depend on me and you won?t need these.?

Chorus:

They say,? I?m so glad that I don?t have
Your Life!
They can?t see the miracle God?s given me
For every trial and tribulation
That?s been set before me?
A hundred blessings I?ve received.
God?s worked through me!

Bridge:

It was a self-fulfilling prophecy?
I couldn?t find
The perfect life
For me.?

Tag:

Thank you Lord
For this broken life?.
God?s worked through me?!
