That's The Thing About Praise
by Benjamin William Hastings, Blessing Offor

Album: Benjamin William Hastings

Verse 1: Blessing Offor
When the rain you want is a flood instead
And the roses bloom, but they're not quite red
When I reach the edge of my bravery
I'll still be singing at the banks of an un-parted sea

Chorus: Blessing Offor
Sometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah
(The only way through it is a hallelujah)
Sometimes the only thing to do is just to give it to You
(The only thing to do is just to give it to You)
And though my troubles shake me
I know they will never move You
Sometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah
(Hallelujah)
That's why I say hallelujah
Hallelujah

Verse 2: Blessing Offor
There's what I want and then there's where I'm at
Every one step forward, it got me five steps back
And I cried, I called, God knows I prayed
But most days faith is climbing up a mountain that stayed

Chorus: Blessing Offor
That's why the only way through it is a hallelujah
(The only way through it is a hallelujah)
Sometimes the only thing to do is just to hand it to You
(The only thing to do is just to hand it to You)
And although my troubles shake me
I know they could never move You
Sometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah
(Hallelujah)
Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
That's why I say hallelujah
Hallelujah

Bridge: Blessing Offor, Blessing Offor & Benjamin William Hastings
It don't always fix your problems
But it'll tell you how small they are
(That's the thing about praise)
(That's the thing about praise)
It won't always move the mountain
But it's good for the heart
(That's the thing about praise)
(That's the thing about praise)
You'll never know what it's gonna change
But it'll always leave a mark
That's the thing about praise
That's the thing about praise
Yeah, I might see walls start falling
Or it might just change my heart
That's the thing about praise
That's the thing about praise (Oh)
That's the thing about praise
That's the thing about praise, woah

Chorus: Blessing Offor
The only way through it is a hallelujah
(The only way through it is a hallelujah)
Sometimes the only thing to do is just to hand it to You
(The only thing to do is just to hand it to You)
And although my troubles shake me
I know they could never move You
The only way through it is a hallelujah
(Hallelujah)

Outro: Blessing Offor, Benjamin William Hastings
That's the thing about praise
You never know what it'll change, change, change
That's why I say hallelujah
Hallelujah
Yeah, that's the thing about praise
You don't even know what it's about to change (You never know what it'll change, change, change)
That's why I say hallelujah
Hallelujah
