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 priase the Lord
He inhabits our praises
Sin He erases
He wants to amaze us, so say this
Everybody praise the Lord
Praise the Lord, everybody, praise the Lord
Praise the Lord, everybody, praise the Lord
Praise the Lord, everybody, praise the Lord
Praise the Lord, everybody, praise the Lord
Everybody, praise the Lord
Everybody, praise the Lord
Everybody, praise the Lord
Everybody, praise the Lord
Everybody, praise the Lord
Everybody, praise the Lord

The struggles of everyday life doesn't just play to the pampered lives of rich Americans. It's all over the world. People want to hate each other so much but they also want to have unity. We can't have both people. If it weren't for my youth group, I wouldn't be able to keep as strong in my faith. They help pull me through. Every person, whether we consider them evil or not, is a child of God and we should treat them as so. Everybody should praise the Lord. I know I should practice what I preach and I would like to be the one testify more but I can't bring myself to stir up the courage to do so. EVERYBODY needs to praise the Lord. God is always there and is never faltering in his love for us. He has been there since the beginning and he will be there till the end.
