(Every morning when I wake up) I thank God for you (Every night I close my eyes) and I thank God for you I shudder to think what might have happened to me if I hadn't met you when I did My life was just one big mangled mess of mistakes no purpose and no future ahead And I was as lost as a leaf on a river and as wild as a straw in the wind But you came along and just by being you made me feel like a woman again (Every minute that I may live) I'll thank God for you You know the lonesomest feeling there is in this old world Is to know that there's no one who cares And then you look up and have you come along Somebody somewhere surely heard my prayers Give me your hand now and I want you to hold on real tight Cause the road might just get a little rough We've got a lotta mountains out there to climb But we've gonna make it on faith and on love (Every morning when I wake up) I thank God for you (Every night I close my eyes) and I thank God for you
