Blog Entry: “Thank You Billy Graham” © 2000 Pat Boone, David Pack, Billy Dean On the 7th of November 1918 he was born To a Carolina farmer and his wife. He grew up long and lanky, milkin’ cows n’ tendin’ school Looking for direction in his life. He went to church one Sunday And met a preacher there A man they call Mordecai Ham. Took him by the hand, led him down the aisle As they sang “Just As I Am.” CHORUS: He heard the word, he got the call, he took the message to us all. He said it so we all could understand. Around the world, here at home, he let us know we’re not alone. Oh, thank you Billy Graham. In little country churches, at the Tab and Youth for Christ People came from everywhere to hear him speak. He had no idea just how God would use him next ‘til in London’s Wembley Field the spirit peaked. REPEAT CHORUS: Father, he adores you. He’s tried to serve you well. To everyone who’d hear him out, your story he would tell. Though all the world may know him, he’s still a humble man. Whoever else may know your grace, remember Billy Graham, Billy Graham. His ministry on radio, TV, and every type of magazine, Touching millions of every color, tribe, and race; From Parliaments to Presidents, from Kings to common folks, Each one heard the truth of God’s amazing grace. REPEAT CHORUS: Thank you for the Father. Thank you for the Son. Thank you for our brother here And all the work he’s done. He would not want to hear it. He’s such a humble man, But around the world we need to say it; “Thank you Billy Graham…oh thank you Billy Graham.” Thank You Billy Graham For more about the National Guard, Billy Graham and Pat Boone, please visit Pat Boone's blog or subscribe by RSS reader
