Not sure why you think 助かった isn't strong enough. It has a lot to do with the way you say it. I can say "Thank god we're alive" after walking out of a plane crash or I could say "thank god that's over" after getting out of a boring class. Clearly they're two completely different levels of intensity and presumably I would say them differently (i.e., a speaker could tell how rough of a situation I had been in). Japanese is no different.
