Uzuhan
Gratitude
[Hook]
I sing a simple song of praise to You
With a heart-full of gratitude

[Verse 1: Uzuhan]
Brother, even when the clouds turn gray
Hail comes around my way, or waves slam into my face
I’ll be giving Him the praise, forever and a day
Never ending cause he’s entitled to every single grain!
Even when the people around me choose to reject Him
I will follow Christ and live out my calling -- no question
To whom shall we go? He’s got the words of life
When He speaks, nourishment fills this soul deprived;
When my soul is dying, He breathes in me --
Dead bones -- now alive -- and got this heart beating
Man, I breathe easy, a profound peace in me
This well run dry transformed into a sea -- easy
I live in a world where it’s hard to find
Hope for humanity and trust in mankind
I got philanthropic organizations selling me lies
Claiming that the answer really resides inside [16]
-- what a sham. But You say that with all of this chaos
And shambles we live-in, we find chandeliers in the dross
Looking for hope in the cross when we’re exhausted and lost?
That’s an answer for any summer or fall
Winter or spring; we can’t deny that different seasons will bring
Mourning, joy, storms, or a reason to sing
Still, I’ll have reasons to smile
Cause I’ll have my solid rock to lean on when life gets all crazy and wild
[Hook]

[Verse 2: Gowe]
You put a soul beat on with blank pages and I will eat that
My hunger to decipher what my God says - is to be that
And to reconstruct the love that has fallen off to the side
When I would compromise my life with the bright flash of the lights
And I would pause reminded by the spirit that dwells inside of me
The grace paid by blood by my Father who fought and died for me
To resurrect again - so I could paint with a pen
And my portraits portray how grace saved me from sin
When I was younger I would try to complete the void
In my heart with a couple nice dates & a couple walks by the park
Only to venture down a dark path - they never could last
Left me sitting with a broke past, that spoke like a trap
And I fell..you would think that I would learn from my mistakes
Add another two months and I'm back walking astray
This is back before I met Him on a personal level
Now I follow a direction like the keys on a treble
So let me slow it down once while I gather my thoughts
The pattern I fought - lost, cause I was bought by the boss or the king
Happiness surrounds me in the ring
When I sing a couple songs that expresses all of the things that I feel
Lost in the love plus I’m passionate to reach the still lost through
Beat breaks and my languages
So I will sing despite the mist and the rain
Cause I know that I don’t deserve it but you love me the same
[Hook]
