I Don't Look Like What I've Been Thru

I've had my share of clouded days
Had many troubles
Friends were few
The nights I cried
The nights I've prayed
That I didn't think that I'd live through
I felt the pressure
I was perplexed
Picked up some scars
Suffered abuse
I must confess
There were those tests
That I didn't think that I'd live thru But

My God kept me
He's faithful and true
And I Thank God I don't look, like what I've been thru

Recall the time when sickness came
And nothing helped
To ease the pain
And I remember a night
A night or two
That I didn't think that I'd live thru
Then there's the time
I'm struck with grief
My Momma Died
What am I gonna do
The nights I cried and even said
I didn't think that I'd live thru but-

My God kept me
He's faithful and true
I Thank God I don't look, like what I've been thru

You'd be surprised
What I've been thru
Praising my God
For what I been thru
Still I smile
Despite all I've been thru
Still I rise
Despite All I've been thru
My God kept me
He's faithful and true
I thank God that I don't look
Like what I've been thru

There was a time I wasn't fed
Out in the cold
And left for dead
I have some scars
Been abused
But I don't like I've been thru
I thank God I don't look
Like what I been thru
