Lyrics
I can sing a billion songs
Dance till my feet are numb
Spin till I’m empty and poor
Can’t praise you enough
Shout till my voice gives way
Leap till I have no strength
Lose my breath trying to explain
Can’t praise you enough
And if time were to stall, I can never tell it all
Words are few, so this will have to do
I just wanna thank You
I just wanna thank You
I just wanna thank You
Oh I’m grateful
You sang till I found my song
You danced till my heart woke up
Now I move to the rhythm of love
I can’t praise You enough
You wept my till I found my way
You lost your breath dying to save
I’ll never go back to that grace
I can’t praise You enough
And if time were to stall, I can never tell it all
Words are few, so this will have to do
I just wanna thank You
I just wanna thank You
I just wanna thank You
Oh I’m grateful
Standing in the promise
Surrounded by Your goodness
You have overwhelmed us
Hallelujah
Standing in the promise
Surrounded by Your goodness
You’re just getting started
Hallelujah

Meaning & Inspiration
“Thank You” presents gratitude as the response to grace that cannot be fully expressed through songs, dancing, shouting, or explanation. The opening verses pile up images of energetic praise, yet each effort remains insufficient beside God’s goodness. That contrast leads naturally into the simple refrain, where repeated thanks become more fitting than elaborate language.
The later lines shift from human praise to Christ’s saving action. References to love, sacrifice, promise, and surrounding goodness place gratitude within the story of redemption rather than momentary emotion. The declaration of standing in the promise also suggests confidence in God’s continuing faithfulness. Its recurring hallelujah joins thanksgiving with worship, while the statement that words are few acknowledges the limits of expression. Through that movement, the song portrays praise as an ongoing answer to mercy: not a payment for grace, but a grateful confession that God has awakened life, provided rescue, and continues to show goodness.
