I'm forever grateful for  what Jesus did that day 
When He came to earth a babe in a manger filled with hay
When He left His royal throne  He knew the price He'd pay
Yet He came and did it anyway 

I'm forever grateful for the mercy He shows me
I am such a sinner yet He died to set me free
And He rose up from the dead so I will live eternally 
I can't believe He did it all for me

Oh, what a Savior
He is to me
My love grows deeper
Each time I see
His hand of mercy
Sweep over me
He is my Savior 
My friend indeed

I'm forever grateful for the joy He gives to me
It conquers every fear and fills my heart with glee
He also gives me peace that calms the storms in me 
Fear and doubt just have to flee

I'm forever grateful for His amazing grace 
When I make all my mistakes He won't throw them in my face
He calmly reassures me that beside Him is my place
And one say I'm going to see His face 

And forever He will stand with me
Forever He will give me grace
Forever He will be a friend who walks with me
Forever I will praise His name

Oh, what a Savior
He is to me
My love grows deeper
Each time I see
His hand of mercy
Sweep over me
He is my Savior 
My friend indeed
