作词 : Samuel Chigozrim Nwachuckwu/Emmanuel Nwaohai 作曲 : Jamal Hope/Nigel Matambo/Samuel Chigozrim Nwachukwu/Joshua Brown/Shem Anthony/Babaseni Joseph I’m grateful So grateful (X3) I was gonna quote my favourite scripture - but see I didn't really know any If I didn't know any better I'd say a man like me just wouldn't know any of the Countless miracles the pages disseminated Know that barren women could bear birth Or a virgin birth a King Who would die and rise again Know Moses had the power to part the sea to set his people free. But I Am who I Am. I've got demons too Hell, if I was in Adam's shoes I might've been the one to eat the fruit So I guess I'm not as Christian as you ... I apologise I don't seem to evangelise To be honest, I see my friends as the real prophets I've got sceptical thoughts of what churches are for And I keep the discussion short when it's religion and abortion I'm sorry But do you speak to God? No.. do you really speak to God? Hear me God I know you hear me God ! Tell them not to fear me God If they can't accept they must respect me God Protect my friends and family God By name you are within me My voice will spread your prophecy And actualise what it means to be Emmanuel Speaks I don't dwell on me too often I was raised bold and tough And the ghetto gospel is that Actions speak louder than words so on the flip side speak too often Even we, don't see too often But you plant your seeds And they continue to grow in my life They form the trees of progress I climb until I lay on the canopy of blessings I wanna thank you for your patience and regular reminders of your benevolence For years I've been trying to figure out how this praying thing works But I've learned some lessons and there's no gift like the present No gift like your talent And how you use it will show you're grateful So this here day is fateful Because I've learned to use mine to show I'm eternally faithful I’m grateful So grateful I’m grateful So grateful You take me in your arms in spite of all my mistakes How sweet is your love I'm lost for words to say What can I do to show ya I open my heart to know ya You take me in your arms in spite of all my mistakes How sweet is your love I'm lost for words to say What can I do to show ya I open my heart to know ya And everything within me is crying I'm grateful (I’m grateful) So grateful (So grateful) Cos you take me as I am I'm just crying I'm grateful (I’m grateful) I’m so grateful (So grateful) Cos you take me as I am I’m crying, I’m grateful Grateful, I’m grateful Grateful, I’m grateful Everything within me is crying, I’m grateful Grateful, I’m grateful Grateful, I’m grateful -- I’m not worthy But you love me And you take me just as I am, in your arms In your mercy, You place me firmly, Lord And you take me just as I am, in your arms I’m not worthy Lord, but you love me And you take me just as I am, in your arms In your mercy, You place me firmly, Lord And you take me just as I am, in your arms I’m not worthy But you love me And you take me just as I am, in your arms You take me just as I am, in your arms And you take me just as I am, in your armsI’m grateful So grateful (X3) I was gonna quote my favourite scripture - but see I didn't really know any If I didn't know any better I'd say a man like me just wouldn't know any of the Countless miracles the pages disseminated Know that barren women could bear birth Or a virgin birth a King Who would die and rise again Know Moses had the power to part the sea to set his people free.
