Thank You For Taking The Time
1. I’m not sure how it happened as I traveled life’s road
but trouble came out of nowhere
The enemy stripped me of all that I owned
and left me for dead lying there
A Priest and a Levite came down that way
but they passed on the other side
I thought my life was through, but God sent me you
and you slipped your hand into mine
Chorus: Thank you for taking the time to rescue one like me
My last hope was gone ‘til you came along and bound up my wounds carefully
Without one second thought you looked past my faults, and there you saw my need
I wouldn’t be here today had you not came my way, thank you for taking the time for me
2. I know you were busy with so much to do
but you pushed your own plans aside
Unselfishly you knelt there by me
and poured in the oil and the wine
And as long as I live, I’ll never forget
how you chose to be my friend
One day in Heaven I’d like to sit down
and tell you all over again…
