Everybody Praise The Lord

There's a growing root of bitterness In the world today From the heart of Johannesburg To the ghettos of L.A. A swelling violent undertow Has gripped the soul of man But an integrated cry of hope Echoes across the land I hear my brothers say Come, everybody, it's time to start To let the love of Jesus In your heart Every tongue and every race All of God's children seek His face Praise the Lord, everybody, praise the Lord Praise the Lord, everybody, praise the Lord People of promise take your place Tell of His mercy and His grace Lift up your voice to the sky All of God's children testify Praise the Lord, everybody, praise the Lord Praise the Lord, everybody, praise the Lord We worship You because You are Lord and King We magnify You because You are the One who reigns We glorify You because You always remain the same We worship You because You are Lord and King We magnify You because You are the One who reigns We glorify You because You always remain the same Praise the Lord, everybody, praise the Lord Praise the Lord, everybody, praise the Lord We got no time for hit and miss The world is full of prejudice You know we just ain't down with this, so come on now Everybody praise the Lord He inhabits our praises Sin He erases He wants to amaze us, so say this Everybody praise the Lord [Repeat: x4] Praise the Lord, everybody, praise the Lord [Repeat: x6] Everybody, praise the Lord --- Everybody Praise the Lord - Carman
