Favor
By favor we prosper, by favor we stand.
By favor we increase in this promised land.
Favor with God and favor with man.
By favor we prosper, by favor we stand.
Uncommon favor like Abraham knew.
This favor's for me, this favor's for you.
For He's promised to bless us in all that we do,
With uncommon favor like Abraham knew!

Genesis 12:1-4
New King James Version (NKJV)
12 Now the Lord had said to Abram:
“Get out of your country,
From your family
And from your father’s house,
To a land that I will show you.
2 I will make you a great nation;
I will bless you
And make your name great;
And you shall be a blessing.
3 I will bless those who bless you,
And I will curse him who curses you;And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
From your family
And from your father’s house,
To a land that I will show you.
2 I will make you a great nation;
I will bless you
And make your name great;
And you shall be a blessing.
3 I will bless those who bless you,
And I will curse him who curses you;And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”

9 “If you obey the commands of the Lord your God and walk in his ways, the Lord will establish you as his holy people as he swore he would do. 10 Then all the nations of the world will see that you are a people claimed by the Lord, and they will stand in awe of you.
11 “The Lord will give you prosperity in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you, blessing you with many children, numerous livestock, and abundant crops.
12 The Lord will send rain at the proper time from his rich treasury in the heavens and will bless all the work you do. You will lend to many nations, but you will never need to borrow from them.
13 If you listen to these commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you today, and if you carefully obey them, the Lord will make you the head and not the tail, and you will always be on top and never at the bottom.
14 You must not turn away from any of the commands I am giving you today, nor follow after other gods and worship them.
