Lyrics

Jesus, (I'll never forget)
what you done for me
Jesus, I'll never forget
you set my soul free
Jesus, I'll never forget
how you've brought me out
well, no no no no no no
I'll never forget

I'm singing
Jesus, OO, what you done for me
Jesus, I'll never forget
you set my soul free
Jesus, I'll never forget
how you brought me out
well, no no no no no no
I'll never forget

I remember how you took my feet out the miry clay
that's what you've done for me
Jesus I'll never forget
you set my soul free
Jesus, I'll never forget
how you've brought me out
well, no no no no no no
I'll never forget

well you've been my friend when I was friendless
that's what (you've done for me)
you've been my light and darkness
that's what (you've done for me)
you lifted my heavy burdens
that's what (you've done for me)
then you took my feet out the miry clay
I'll never forget

Jesus, OO, what you done for me
Jesus, I'll never forget
you set my soul free
Jesus, I'll never forget
how you brought me out
well, no no no no no no
I'll never forget

well you've been my mother when I was motherless
that's what (you've done for me)
been my friend when I was friendless
that's what (you've done for me)
been my water when I was thirsty
that's what (you've done for me)
then you took my feet out the miry clay
I'll never forget

Jesus, OO, what you done for me
Jesus, I'll never forget
you set my soul free
Jesus, I'll never forget
how you brought me out
well, no no no no no no
I'll never forget
