Imela (Thank You) Nathaniel Bassey

I don't usually post Nigerian songs but someone was asking for this song :)

.F#

 When I think upon your goodness;

.C#/F

 And Your faithfulness each day

.B

 I’m convinced it’s not because I am worthy

.F#                                             C#/F

 Eze m Oh (My King)

[2]

Who am I to sing Your praises?

Who am I to worship You?

It’s Your blood that makes the difference in me

And made a way to enter into Your throne

I could not come near Your presence

I could never sing Your song

But the sacrifice on Calvary’s tree

is the reason I can cry out today
