Wasn't a fancy car Wasn't a diamond ring Wasn't friends or lovers at the end of the day Cause this life's hard and it can bring trouble In the midst of this trouble no one can take it away You need His favor, His favor, His favor, His favor It was His favor, His favor, His favor, His favor
I'm a witness so I'm takin a stand Life and trouble go together like bacon and pans There's gon' be some up and downs like I'm shakin you're hand And everybody gets down just like a snake in the sand But God's faithful to man He's got favor His hand could take a lame with no cane Make him able to stand Man He can reach inside of us with a deposit and got us up outta pits Reach you at the bottom even when bottom is bottomless I was just there, I'm a product My survival is not 'cause I'm the fittest But my God is a revivalist That's just what it is, that's just what He does Recognize what it isn't, recognize what it was
Wasn't a fancy car Wasn't a diamond ring Wasn't friends or lovers at the end of the day Cause this life's hard and it can bring trouble In the midst of this trouble no one can take it away You need His favor, His favor, His favor, His favor It was His favor, His favor, His favor, His favor
Of course it was His favor How else you get that job You ain't have that paper It's favor that helped you get that ride With your credit, forget it How else you get that crib Single parent, apparently Jesus helps you with them kids How'd you go from child of wrath to child of God I know the math, I know how to add; favor multiplied Grace came out His hands and feet Grace came out His side So amazing so I praise Him, I realize I was born in sin but born again Like I was born on U.S. soil Not from Casey, but through gracie From the dude that's royal Such an unlikely pick I'm like Susan Boyle There's enough grace unlike U.S. oil

Favor is grace to live, grace to die, grace to give At the pinnacle is when God came and placed a bridge Between Himself and we who are on the outside We were lepers We were desperate like all them housewives It supplies strength and it supply need It's free constantly flowin like a IV Enough for everybody even in India, I read Up on the daily, daily He's with me like ID's I was once on top though I was high to death Then I dropped and I brought this all on myself Then His grace came down, gave me life from death After the swap now I'm back on the top shelf
Wooaaa, wooaaa, wooaaa, His favor Wooaaa, wooaaa, wooaaa, it was His favor You need His favor, His favor, His favor, His favor It was His favor, His favor, His favor, His favor It was His favor, His favor, His favor, His favor It was His favor, His favor, His favor, His favor
Now you prepared my table, You did all the labor I don't even worry cuz I know that you are able You blessed my neighbor He didn't even have tv, but now he has cable
