Honestly the only advice will we are able to give are;

Try wiping your cache partition to see if your keyboard is restored. Since you didn't tell us what phone you have, type cache partition wipe and your phone into Google.

If that does not restore your keyboard you could try starting the phone in Safe Mode. Again because you didn't say what device type, Safe Mode and your phone into Google.

If neither of these restores your keyboard mustang7757's advice of factory resetting your phone is the next step. Just like with the last two, type factory reset buttons and your phone into Google. **Be warned that factory resetting your device from outside of the phone will trigger Google's Reset Protection and require you to enter your Gmail address and password used to activate the device. There is no way to circumvent this security measure and we cannot discuss circumventing it in this forum.
