I woke up early this morning
I saw a brand new dawn
And I got up, I opened my eyes
I said Lord I thank you for keeping me alive
This what I told him
For one more day
For one more day
For one more day
For one more day
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you
For one more day
Lord you kept me from all hurt and harm
Lord you kept me safe in the cradle of your arms
Lord I want you to know I won't complain, Lord
Every time I think of your goodness, I got to praise your name
This what I told him
Thank you Lord (For one more day)
Thank you Lord (For one more day)
Lord, you been mighty good to me (For one more day)
One more day (For one more day)
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you
One more day (For one more day)
One more day (For one more day)
One more day [repeat]
