It Was a Blessed Day

Just wakin’ up in the spirit, gotta thank the Lord Feelin’ kinda different, troubles on the floor No chains holdin’ tight, no fear in my sight Steadfast love forever, yeah that’s my light Let Israel say it, let the house of Aaron ring All who fear Him shout, let the praises sing Out of my distress I called, He picked up quick Answered me, set me free, now the cage don’t stick Lord on my side, what can man do to me? Enemies talk big, but they can’t touch the King It was a blessed day Nations rolled up deep, surrounded every way Like bees swarmin’ mad, tryna block my play Pushed me to the edge, almost hit the ground But the Lord caught me, turned it all around He’s my strength, my song, my salvation straight Right hand doin’ work, enemies catch the fade I ain’t dyin’ today, I’m livin’ to recount All the deeds He did, watch me lift it up loud Discipline was heavy, but He spared my breath Gates of righteousness open, I step in blessed It was a blessed day Yo... just pause for a second, feel this. I was surrounded, pushed hard, fallin’ fast... But He answered. Straight up. No delay. Man can plot, princes can scheme, nations can swarm... But when the Lord’s on your side? Ain’t nothin’ they can do. This ain’t luck. This the Lord’s doing. Marvelous in my eyes. Yeah... it was a blessed day. The stone they rejected? Now it’s the cornerstone Builders passed it up, but God made it known This the Lord’s doing, marvelous in my eyes Rejoice and be glad, let the glad songs rise Save us we pray, give success in Your name Blessed is He comin’, we bless from the flame You my God, I thank You, I extol Your worth Light shinin’ on us, greatest day on earth Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is good His steadfast love endures forever—understood It was a blessed day
