Tebz Smith Grateful
Chorus:
Coming this far was so long
I so much love your union
Might not be perfect it's being God
(It's being God, it's being God)
I'm glad you didn't spare the rod
We might not still have it all
But I love you both all the same
And I say
Hook:
I'm grateful
I'm grateful
I'm grateful
For everything, in every way
I'm grateful
I'm grateful
I'm grateful
For everything, in every way
Verse 1
Hey Mom, how are you doing?
Mo Mo bi everything shey ri, I know it's not easy
The coming was rough, Glad you didn't give up
I know how much you deny yourself a lot of things, just to make us happy
And when I remember the tales of how I was given birth to
I stay grateful to God and to you
My coming almost took your life
I'm glad the Lord kept you strong, I'm glad you're here with us
Iya omo to toh, my first love, the good mother, Eyin ni ife mi to toh
Thank you for teaching me and my siblings the way of the Lord
Ona Oluwa yi gan gan lona oti toh
I want to use this time to tell you how sorry I am for all the times I caused you heartaches and tears
But thank God for life now
No need for tears MoMA, I promise, I'll always make you proud
For now, let us dance
Chorus:
Coming this far was so long
I so much love your union
Might not be perfect, it's being God
(It's being God, it's being God)
I'm glad you didn't spare the rod
We might not still have it all
But I love you both all the same
And I say

Verse 2
Hello Dad!
Thank you for being my dad
You might not be perfect but I'm proud to call you dad
I've really learned a lot from you so far
It might not be formal but I learn leadership somehow
The way you care for your family is so unique
Still, you aren't the type that says let's go shop the boutiques
I know it's not easy, but I thank the Lord for the decisions that you made - been so firm!
Daddy dada, you've tried a lot
People might not know how you've given so much
To a great extent, I've learned practical selflessness
I'm glad I've got so much good from you
For your children to be great in life, you don't mind giving your all
The coming wasn't roasy, but we grateful to God
I say thank you for holding your wife and home together
I pray in Jesus name, nothing shall ever put asunder. Amen!
