How I Love the Lord

[Verse 1]
I was just a child
Tryin' to hold the world down
Growin' so fast
Didn't know how to even wipe my

But I knew God was real
He was steady in the storm
When the fear came in
He kept my little heart warm

[Pre-Chorus]
He brought me through a storm
He rescued me and never let me go
Life got tough on me
And God showed me He was tougher, oh

[Chorus]
How I love the Lord
How I love the Lord
Thank you, thank you, thank you
The Lord has been good to me

How I love the Lord
How I love the Lord
What I see looking back
Is a seed that had to be watered

[Verse 2]
Now when I look back
I can see His hand on me
Every hard, hard season
Was a place where I was meant to be

What felt like breaking
Turned to blessing in my soul
What I could not carry
He carried and made me whole

[Pre-Chorus]
He brought me through a storm
He rescued me and never let me go
Life got tough on me
And God showed me He was tougher, oh

[Chorus]
How I love the Lord
How I love the Lord
Thank you, thank you, thank you
The Lord has been good to me

How I love the Lord
How I love the Lord
What I see looking back
Is a seed that had to be watered

[Bridge]
I was small, but He was near
I was weak, but He was strong
Every tear became a prayer
Every night grew into song

[Final Chorus]
How I love the Lord
How I love the Lord
Thank you, thank you, thank you
The Lord has been good to me

How I love the Lord
How I love the Lord
What I see looking back
Is a seed that had to be watered

How I love the Lord
How I love the Lord
Thank you, thank you, thank you
Tha' goodness brought me home
