Praise

Jan 16, 2002
By: Rick L. King

Praise is definitely an act
That is of our will
Sometimes it is a sacrifice
When all seems to have gone downhill

Praise is an attitude
That is in our very heart
For no matter how we feel
We must do our part

Praise, God does inhabit
With His presence divine
Praise is something that we must do
Not just part, but all of the time

Praise puts all of our enemies
To defeat and flight
Praise will cause our day
To turn from darkness into light

The rocks shouldn't have to cry out
And take our rightful place
Lift up your hands and Praise the Lord
So in victory you can run the race!

Our praise must be acceptable
So we must praise Him with all of our heart
He knows if our praise is just shallow words
And in those He will not take part

We must praise Him for who He is
Not just so much for what He does
It doesn't really matter what we have
Let's just praise Him for his love

So, Praise the Lord, all ye people
Make a joyful noise unto Him
Let Him know your hearts depth
As you praise the victor of death, hell, and sin

Praise Him with the cymbals
Praise Him with the song
Praise Him in the Spirit
Praise Him all day long

So, Praise the Lord, all ye people
Let the shouts of your praise ring
Throughout the streets and everywhere
Let's glorify Jesus Christ our King!
