Lyrics
Lord I love you so
Got to let the whole world know
You are the best thing that happen to me
the best thing that happen to me
Don't know what i'll do
if it wasn't for you lord
You are the best thing that happen to me
the best thing that happen to me
Let me express to you
exactly how I feel
(let me tell you)
my deepest gratitude
your love is so sincere
words can't begin to tell
all I want to say
so I'll just lift up my hands
and sing to you this praise
Lord I love you so
Got to let the whole world know
You are the best thing that happen to me
the best thing that happen to me
Don't know what i'll do
if it wasn't for you lord
You are the best thing that happen to me
the best thing that happen to me
Lord you are the only one
who makes my life complete
in your arms i'll run
in you I find relief
so thankful am I
and i'm so glad i'm yours
no other one I can find
to compare I'm sure..ohhhhhh
Lord I love you so
Got to let the whole world know
You are the best thing that happen to me
the best thing that happen to me
Don't know what i'll do
if it wasn't for you lord
You are the best thing that happen to me
the best thing that happen to me
I'm so in love and I can't deny
won't go nowhere without you by my side
you're the best thing that I have in my life
since I met you everything is alright

Meaning & Inspiration
“Best Thing” is a direct expression of gratitude and devotion to the Lord. The singer describes God as the one who makes life complete, provides relief, and remains an indispensable companion. Its recurring declaration that the Lord is the best thing that happened to her turns personal testimony into praise, while the raised hands and repeated words of love reinforce the song’s worshipful focus. The lyrics emphasize dependence on God without shifting away from simple, affectionate thanksgiving.
The song’s gratitude is consistent with Psalm 103, where praise rises from remembering God’s benefits and care. Its image of lifting hands in praise also recalls Psalm 63:3-4. Rather than listing particular circumstances, the song concentrates on the security and wholeness found in belonging to the Lord. The repeated chorus makes that confession central: life is understood in relation to God’s sincere love, sustaining presence, and incomparable place. The result is a contemporary gospel testimony shaped by praise, gratitude, and confidence in divine care.
