Verse 1] May the words of my mouth and my heart’s meditation, without reservation or a long explanation, Be a clear indication that I’m thankful for salvation. [bridge] Yes, I’m thankful for salvation, and I want the world to know. Yes, I want the world to know. Thank you, Lord. [Verse 2] But the slow gestation of my new birth, on occasion, makes me wonder why God put me on this earth. Lord, help me start a- livin’ like a man who’s been forgiven and pulled from a deep, dark hole. I’am realizin’ that my hope’s on the horizon, A new day, a new life, a new me. May the grace that you’ve shown me Make me joyful that you own me. You’re my Lord, you’re my life; I am free. Yes, dear Lord, I am joyful, oh, so joyful, that I’m free. [outgo] [chorus] I found salvation in Jesus I found forgiveness from sin I know when I reach heaven Jesus is my ticket in. Hey, Hey. Let’s do it again. May the words of my mouth and my heart’s meditation, without reservation or a long explanation, Be a clear indication that I’m thankful for salvation. [bridge] Yes, I’m thankful for salvation, and I want the world to know. Yes, I want the world to know. Thank you, Lord.
