Praise Songtext
von Mighty Sam McClain

I asked my mama a long, long time ago
"Where is my daddy?" She said, "I don′t know"
So my heart went looking, trying to find my daddy
And much to my surprise, God showed up instead

So I praise Him
All day long, I tell y'all, I praise Him
In His sanctuary, sometimes I praise Him
When I′m standing on the corner, sometimes I praise His name

Oh, how happy I am to tell you this story
Because I know God's gonna get the glory
I hope I give you hope, hope for another day
Forgive, forgive, forgive, let love lead your way

Come on and praise Him
Get up, praise Him
On those avenues, sometimes I praise His name
In the sanctuary, I praise His name
Standing on the avenue, I praise His name


Love's such a wonderful thing that will never let you down
So do the best you can and love will come back around
Remember, people fall, so will you
Love is always there and love will bring you through

So get up and praise Him
Everybody oughta stand up and praise His name
Every now and then, I praise His name
Sometimes, I praise His name all day long

Oh, how happy I am to tell you this story
Because I know, I know God′s gonna get the glory
I hope I give you hope, hope for another day
Forgive, forgive, forgive, let love lead your way

Come on and, huh
Take a little time and praise Him
Everybody, everybody, praise Him
Oh, we oughta get together and praise His name
Everybody oughta sing some praises
If you feel what I′m saying, I want you to praise Him
I wanna sing this evening, I wanna praise His name
Right about now, I wanna praise His holy name


Oh, you've been so good to me, Lord
Praise His name
I thank you for doing what you′ve done for me
Oh, you brought me a mighty long way
You've been so good
Oh, you done brought me from a mighty, mighty long way, Lord

Everybody oughta know I just praise Him
