Lyrics

I’m a sinner grace is still healing
I’m a story time is revealing
I’m all of these things
But mostly I’m thankful


I’m a fighter caught in a struggle
A survivor rising above it
I’m all of these things
But mostly I’m thankful


Cause You gave me one more day
To say I love You
You have brought me all this way
To testify of grace
What more can I say
But hallelujah
Thank You Jesus
Thank You Jesus
Thank You Jesus
Cause You gave me one more day
One more day


When the night was closing in on me
Didn’t know if I’d see the morning
You held on to me
And Jesus I’m grateful


When my enemies turned up the fire
El Shaddai, You were right there beside me
You showed up for me
And Jesus I’m grateful


Oh Lord
I just really want to praise You
You mean everything, everything, everything to me

Meaning & Inspiration

One More Day frames each new day as an undeserved gift and an opportunity to praise Jesus. The verses acknowledge sin, an unfinished story, struggle, survival, and fear without allowing those experiences to become the final word. Gratitude becomes the song’s central response because grace is still at work and divine help has carried the singer through darkness. The recurring thanks to Jesus turns personal survival into testimony and praise.

The chorus answers the gift of another day with love, hallelujah, and a desire to testify about grace. Later lines recall a night that seemed overwhelming and opposition that intensified, yet God remained near and sustaining. The use of El Shaddai emphasizes God as sufficient in distress. Rather than presenting gratitude as denial of hardship, the song places thanksgiving inside the struggle. Its repeated confession celebrates continued life, faithful presence, and another chance to honor Christ.
