Album: The Best of Russ Taff
When you're up against a struggle that shatters all your dreams
And your hopes have been cruelly crushed by Satan's manifested schemes
And you feel the urge within you to submit to earthly fears
Don't let the faith your standing in seem to disappear
(Chorus)
Praise the Lord -- He will work for those who praise Him
Praise the Lord -- for our God inhabits praise
Praise the Lord -- for those chains that seem to bind you
Serve only to remind you
That they dropped powerless behind you
When you praise Him
Now Satan is a liar and he wants to make us think
That we are paupers, but he knows himself we're children of the King
So lift up the mighty shield of faith, for the battle must be won
We know that Jesus Christ is risen, so the work's already done
(Chorus)
...for those chains that seem to bind you
Serve only to remind you
That they dropped powerless behind you
When you praise Him, praise Him
Praise Him, when you praise Him
When you praise Him
When you praise
The Lord
