Say Amen (2001) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's time to say goodbye for now
We'll have our second time around
But before we go
There's something I'd like to say
Everything's not what it seems
There's a stronger force behind the scenes
He's in our lives every day
He's right there when we call

[Pre-Chorus]
In Him is where my strength lies
I lift my eyes beyond the skies
Only He can save my life
And only He can hear my cry

[Chorus]
I wanna thank you, God
For giving me one more chance
To raise my voice and sing Your praise
I sing it out loud
I sing it all day
This song is my prayer I give to only You
It can't compare to the gift from You
He gave us His love
He gave us His Son
(Jesus) Oh yeah, Jesus
[Verse 2]
I know there's some who don't believe
Sometimes it's very hard to see
Oh, we live this old life every day
Some things don't go your way
But to be without is not His will, no
There's cattle on a thousand hills
And they're all Yours to claim
Claim in His Holy name

[Pre-Chorus]
See, we don't have to beg or crawl, no
He'll see you standing proud and tall
He'll give His everlasting love
Come to Him as you are

[Chorus]
I wanna thank you, God
For giving me one more chance
To raise my voice and sing Your praise
I sing it out loud
Hey, I sing it all day
This song is my prayer I give to only You
It can't compare to the gift from You, oh, oh
See, He gave us love
He gave us His son
[Outro]
I wanna thank you, God
For giving me one more chance (Oh)
To raise my voice and sing Your praise
I sing it out loud
Ooh, ooh, I sing it all day
Said it's my prayer I give to only You, yeah
It can't compare to the gift from You, yeah, yeah
You gave us Your love
You gave us Your son
Now I say Amen (I say Amen)
Ooh, ooh, hoo-hoo-ooh-hoo, yeah
(God, our Father) God, our Father
(God, our Father) God, our Father
(I say Amen) Hallelujah
(I say) Amen, ooh, ooh, ooh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
