Lyrics of 'F.A.V.O.R' by Kirk Franklin

One (one), two (two)
One, two

I was too afraid to believe it
Or not good enough to receive it
My season's gone, so why do I need it?
This one's the story of my life (come on)
Told so much that I wasn't worthy
I even tried love, but then love hurt me (uh-huh)
I shouted, but though God never heard me
I became the victim of my lies (see, the truth is)

See, everybody goes through the fire
But not everyone comes out like gold
I started low and God took me higher (thank you)
He gets the praise and the world will know (they will know)

I will live, and not die
I will win with tears in my eyes
I'll be judged and criticized
Only by those too afraid to try
I'm living in blessings and favor (favor)
See God exchange my pain for something greater for me
Right now, not later, for all you've been through
Blessings and favors waiting for you (God's amazing)

Favor (hey)
Ooh, favor (come on)
Blessings and favor

Said, you can't let your problems override the promise
And don't let your feelings dictate your faith (come on)

I was too afraid to believe it
Or not good enough to receive it (feels good)
My season's gone, so why do I need it?
This one's the story of my life (it's my testimony)
Told so much that I wasn't worthy (yeah)
I even tried love, but then love hurt me (uh, you've been there)
I shouted, but though God never heard me
I became the victim of my lies (let me talk to you)

See, everybody goes through the fire
But not everyone comes out like gold (painful, but necessary)
I started low and God took me higher
He gets the praise and the world will know (sing this to yourself)

I will live, and not die
I will win with tears in my eyes (hallelujah)
I'll be judged and criticized (only by those)
Only by those too afraid to try (come on)
I'm living in blessings and favor (favor)
See God exchange my pain for something (greater)
Greater for me
Right now, not later, for all you've been through
Blessings and favors waiting for you
(Hey, for all you've been through)
Sing

Favor (hey), ooh, favor (God has)
Blessings and favor (let it breathe)

See, favor's not material things
None of the treasure's this world can bring
It's when God's hand is on your life(yes)
And when you know what real love means
I'm living in (let's go)
Favor (in your mind), ooh, favor (or your job)
Favor (God has), blessings and favor for you (over your life)
Favor (over your children), favor (over your future)
Favor (come on), blessings and favor for you
I will live (favor), and not die (oh, favor)
'Cause I got never-ending God-given favor

I will live (I see it), and not die (don't quit)
I will win with tears in my eyes (you're close than you ever been)
I'll be judged (not now) and criticized (I've got ya)
Only by those too afraid to try
I'm living in blessings and favor (yessir)
See God exchange my pain for something (greater)
Greater for me (right now)
Right now, not later (yeah), for all you've been through
Blessings and favors waiting for you

I'm sending my favor (favor)
Say favor (oh, favor)
God's (favor), yeah (oh, favor)
Eyes haven't seen (favor)
Ears haven't heard (favor)
That I've got
Never-ending God-given favor
