Mmm oh yeah blessed be the father oh
Sometimes you feel like you're all alone
Sometimes it's hard just to find a home
Seems like you're searching in the dark
Trying to find just a touch of heart

Sometimes you feel like you wanna cry
Breakdown and crawl like you wanna die
Just when you think that all is lost
You find the strength just to get across
And when you reach for a deeper love
You find a way to rise above
'Cause I know I know I know I know

[Chorus]
God watches over us
And no matter where we go
I put my heart and trust
And I just won't let it go
'Cause I know I know I know I know
God watches over us oh yeah

I've had my times for the might have been
I've played those games that I couldn't win
I had a hand had to turn it in
'Cause I was scared just to loose a friend
Sometimes you stop and you close the door
You reach inside cause you needed more
Can't help but kneel and shout a prayer
Somehow I know there is someone there
'Cause when you reach out for a deeper love
You find a way to rise above
'Cause I know I know I know I know

[Chorus]
Life may have its ups and downs
But when all is lost I've found
I've found

[Chorus]
