BONUS: Praise the Lord Lyrics
When you're up against a struggle That shatters all your dreams And your hope has been cruelly crushed By Satan's manifesting scheme And you feel the urge within you To submit to earthly fears Don't let the faith you're standing in, seem to disappear
(Chorus)
Praise the Lord He can work with those who praise Him , Praise the Lord For our God inhabits praise, Praise the Lord For the chains that seem to bind you Serve only to remind you that they drop powerless behind you When you praise him
Now satan is a liar And he wants to make us think That we are paupers When he knows himself We're children of the King So lift up the might shield of faith For the battle has been won We know that Jesus Christ has risen So the work's already done
(Repeat Chorus)
Originally recorded by The Imperials
Song Description: "It's easy to praise the Lord at church on Sunday morning when things are going well in our lives. It can also be easy to praise God when the sun is shining and all seems right with the world. But when we wake up at 3:00 am, the walls seem like they are closing in, and fear tries to overtake us, praise the Lord. Then, and always, praise the Lord." - Greg Long
