Could I Ever Pay You Back?

If I did not have you Lord?
Who would I turn to, who listens to me like you do, Lord?
How could I ever thank you enough Lord?
What could I do to pay you back?
Could I ever pay you back Lord?

Silent whispers to you in the dark or night
Voiceless prayers raised to you, O wonderful Father
It is true, I am convinced that you listen to my heart
Oh Lord, How could I ever pay you back?
For listening to me even when I did not know what to say?
Could I ever pay you back Lord?

My cousin, she is mending
My Mgm, he is at peace, regardless
My children, they are healthy and happy
My family, they are accounted for, in spite of it all
Those people on that plane, you saved from being blown up!
Ms. B's hubby, you have kept to see another year
The enemy, he roared and he huffed and he puffed, YET
My Lord, My Father, My Rock and The Lifter up of my head
You ruined all his plans. What do I owe you for this love you show me?
Could I ever pay you back?

I guess not. No, I know I cannot.
I will always always owe you my Lord and My King.
Your bank account with me will always be in debit
But today, please take this my offering of thanks as my
Feeble, humble thanks and praise deposit into my account with you
Cos I am convinced
I could never pay you back.
But, by your grace, I will keep on trying.
