This morning I picked up a paper
I read about tragedy
I stopped and I realized
That it could've been me, oh oh

That could've been my mother
Or maybe even my big brother
But You kept them just like You kept me
I want to tell You that

God has smiled on me
He has set me free
God has smiled on me
He has set me free

Now I've been through some things that
I thought were unnecessarily
Were way too much to carry
All by myself, yeah

You gave me strength to
Make it through
I thought I couldn't take it
Feels so good to know that You care
Yeah, yeah

God has smiled on me
He has set me free
God has smiled on me
He has set me free

So glad I know You
Glad You're my friend
Whenever I need You
You're always near

You don't have to be
So good to me
But You keep on smiling

God has smiled on me
He has set me free
God has smiled on me
He has been good to me

God has smiled on me
He has set me free
God has smiled on me
He has been good to me

God has smiled on me
He has set me free
God has smiled on me
