He Kept Me (Live)
Mmm
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
My God, my God
There were times when I wanted to give up on you
Believed you were there, but I couldn't feel you
You stepped in, you came to see me through
You never left me
Even though I made my share of mistakes
I never paid the price that I should've paid
You never left me, nor did you forsake me
Lord, you never gave up on me
(You kept me, you kept me)
When I avoided your plan and I gave up and ran
You kept me (you kept me, you kept me)
When I was sinking like quicksand, you gave me your hand
You kept me (you kept me, you kept me, you kept me)
When I trusted in man, didn't give you a chance
You kept me, oh (you kept me, you kept me, you kept me)
Yeah, He's a keeper
Said I've been in church all of my life
I didn't learn your word but how to disguise
How to look good in other people's eyes
(But you still kept me)
Because of your love, I'm running back to you
Because of your grace, I wanna say thank you
Lord, you're so faithful
And I'm so grateful that you never gave up on me
(You kept me, you kept me)
When I avoided your plan and I gave up and ran
You kept me (you kept me, you kept me)
When I was sinking like quicksand, gave me your hand
You kept me (you kept me, you kept me, you kept me)
When I trusted in man, didn't give you a chance
You kept me, you kept me (you kept me, you kept me)
You kept me, oh, yeah (you kept me, yeah, He's a keeper)
(He's able to keep us)
Keep us from falling (to keep us from falling)
And He'll present us faultless
(Before the presence of His glory)
No matter what it feels like
Even in your darkest night
I just want to testify
That my God is right here by your side
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
He never gave up on me, no, no, no, no
(You kept me, you kept me)
When I avoided your plan and I gave up and ran
You kept me, hey (you kept me, you kept me)
When I was sinking like quicksand, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(You kept me, you kept me, you kept me)
When I trusted in the man, didn't give you a chance
You kept me, you kept me (you kept me, you kept me)
You kept me (you kept me)
He's a keeper
(You kept me, you kept me) thank you for your grace, my God
Thank you for your mercy, my Lord (you kept me, you kept me)
It was your blood that helped me (you kept me)
Your love, that kept me (you kept me)
Your grace, that kept me (you kept me, you kept me)
That kept me (you kept me)
(He's a keeper)
Anybody that can
Oh, my!
Listen, I gotta go, but I'm gonna tell you something
I was sinking deep in sin
So far from the peaceful shore
Very deeply stained within
Sinking to rise
But the Master of the sea
He heard my despairing cry
From the water, He lifted me, huh
Now safe in mine, here we go
'Cause He's a keeper (He's a keeper)
Yes, He is (yes, He is)
He's a keeper (He's a keeper)
Yes, He is (yes, He is)
He's a keeper (He's a keeper)
Yes, He is (yes, He is)
He's a keeper (he's a keeper)
Yes, He is (yes, He is)
Yeah, yeah
That's all! Love you all, goodnight!
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
My God, my God
There were times when I wanted to give up on you
