God Favored Me (Extended Version) (feat. Marvin Sapp & DJ Rogers)

This is my testimony, everybody
How God favored me in spite of my enemies
And if God did it for me, He'll do the same thing for you
Don't worry about your haters
Your haters can't do nothing with you
Listen to these words

Love is patient, caring
Love is kind (love is felt most)
Love is felt most when it's (when it's genuine) genuine
But I've had (I had my share) my share of
Of love (of love abuse) abuse (manipulated)
Manipulated (and its strength)
And its strength (misused) misused

And I can't help (and I can't help)
But give (but to give God glory) You glory
(When I think about my story)
When I think (oh yeah, y'all)
About (I got a story to tell) my story (and I know)

And I know (You favored me)
You favored me (hmm-mmm) because (because my enemies)
My enemies did try (they did try)
But couldn't triumph (but they couldn't triumph)
Over me (over me, yes, they did try)
Yes, they did try (but it didn't work)
But couldn't triumph over me

I'm still here, I'm still alive
I'm still blessed
On my way to my destiny
Because the favor of God is on my life
Let me tell you about love

(Love) love is patient
(Is patient, caring, love) love is kind
(Is kind, love) love is felt most
(Is felt most when it's) when it's genuine (genuine)
I had a whole lot of people in my life
(But I've had my share of love)
Who abused my love (abuse)
(Mani-) they manipulated it (-pulated and its strength)
And took the strength of it (misused) and tried to misuse it

(And I can't help but give) but I can't help
(You glory) but to give God glory today
(When I think) when I think about all I've been through

(Yes, they did try) 'cause greater is He that is in me
(But couldn't triumph) than he that's in the world (over me)

Come here, D. J. Rogers (God favors me)

Wondering why I did not die?
I'll be happy to tell you why (God favors me)
No longer do I cry
When fake friends say goodbye (God favors me)
Some days, the well was dry
But I had the same reply (God favors me)
Evil wants to bring me down inside (hey God!)
But God said again I'll rise

(Yes) come on, everybody, say, "Yes"
(Yes) don't you let the evilness
(Yes) of your haters bring you down
(God favors me) oh

Oh, praise God!
Thank God, everybody
One more time, everybody, lift your voice all over this world
And say, "God favors me"
