mike bowling - thank god for the preacher lyrics

as i walk down the sidewalk
of a sin+stricken city
i see the misfortunes of men
a man in the gutter lying there lifeless
clutching a bottle in his hand
he was some mother’s darling
maybe some young man’s father
but now he’s a prisoner to sin
no hugs in the morning and no family altar
he’s gets by the best that he can

thank god for the preacher
who told me of jesus
for i’d be a beggar
if not for his grace
lord, help me show others
your love and your mercy
make my life a witness
to others i pray

in a little white church house
at an old tear+stained altar
a prayer for god’s mercy was heard
though his sins were many
and his burdens heavy
he took the lord at his word
the angels rejoiced as he was forgiven
shouts filled the temple that day
i will never get over that trip to the altar
for i was that sinner who prayed
and thank god for the preacher
who told me of jesus
for i’d be a beggar
if not for his grace
lord, help me show others
your love and your mercy
make my life a witness
to others i pray

and thank god for the preacher
who told me of jesus
for i’d be a beggar
if not for his grace
lord, help me show others
your love and your mercy
make my life a witness
to others i pray

lord, help me show others
your love and your mercy
make my life a witness
to others i pray
make my life a witness
to others i pray
