 I go down on my knees and pray


[KY-MANI]


 Thank you Lord for every little thing yeah
 Thank you Lord for now you made me see
 Sing along, sing along


[SHAGGY]


 Now when I look back in the days of all the sweat and
 all the dues I paid
 I go down on my knees and pray
 And give thanks to the Father for the blessings that he shined on me
 I sing a little song of praise
 Though I know that everybody ain't as fortunate as I may be
 One more time I say
 Words cannot express appreciation what he's done for me
 Right now I say thank you Lord


[chorus]


[SHAGGY]


 When I look back at all the things that the Father has done for me
 I give thanks to the Lord and everyday i'm on my knee
 Write the song now to please
 No matter the color nor the creed
 It was invested in me I'm here to do a good deed hey
 I try to put a smile on your face
 I write a simple song so it appeals to your taste
 I tried to do the things that people appreciate
 Well thanks for the music that they all embrace
 And I say thank you Lord


[chorus]


[KY-MANI]


 Say I'm in no competion
 But I have made my decision
 You can keep your opinion
 I am just a calling on the wise man communion


[chorus]


[SHAGGY]


 I thank the Lord once again for the power of the pen
 Yes I be making ends to feed my family and my friends
 Push out my Benz check your lens
 Beg you ease up off my fence
 Mi afi push out my mother in the latest gems
 I have to put the food upon mi table
 Have to feed the little mouth them in my stable
 Hail up to the Big Yard label
 And me say thank you Massa God that I am able
 Give thanks to the Lord


[chorus]
