“Sometimes I Forget” is a quiet prayer of gratitude—remembering how far God has carried us from darkness into light. Simple, honest lines reflect on storms survived, help received, and a faith that holds fast.
Sometimes I Forget
Sometimes I forget how far I’ve come From a life that felt like a prison cell And sometimes I forget to thank my God Who raised me from the depths of hell
When my world was dark and hope was weak He gave me strength to stand and cope And when I fell in deep despair He wrapped me in His light and hope
He sheltered me from sudden storms That sought to tear my soul apart Then gently led me back again With healing hands and patient heart
He’s carried me o’er mountains high And pulled me from the raging tide He’s fought for me in battles fierce And always stayed right by my side
He loved me when I turned away And never once has failed me yet He’s never thought of giving up That’s something I must not forget
