Rich Mullins: Praise To The Lord

This is the very First version of "Sing Your Praise To The Lord".
This is sung on Rich's first album "Behold The Lamb" under his group
named "ZION"

"Praise to the Lord
Come on everybody
Stand up and sing one more "Hallelujah"
Give your praise to the Lord
I could never tell you just how much
Good that it's bound to do you
Just to sing

Anew
The song your heart learned to sing
When He first gave His life to you
Well life goes on and so must the song
You gotta sing again the song born in your soul when
You first gave your heart to Him
Sing His praises once more

Give your praise to the Lord
Come on everybody
Stand up and sing one more "Hallelujah"
Give your praise to the Lord
I could never tell you just how much
Good that it's bound to do you
Just to sing

Aloud the song that someone is dying
To hear down in the madding crowd
That you once were before you heard the song
You gotta let them know that the truth
Is a light to shine upon the way that maybe they can go
To sing His praises once more

Give your praise to the Lord
Come on everybody
Stand up and sing one more, "Hallelujah"
Give your praise to the Lord
I could never tell you just how much
Good that it's bound to do you

Just to sing (Sing sing sing)
The praises of the Lord (Sing sing sing)
And everybody sing (Sing sing sing)
The praises of the Lord (Sing sing sing)

From the rising of the sun
To the place where it sets
The name of the Lord is to be praised
The Lord is exalted over all the nations
And His glory above the heavens
And who is like the Lord our God
The One who sits enthroned on high
He who stoops to look down upon
Down upon the earth and its sky

And that is why you gotta give
Your praise to the Lord
Come on everybody
Stand up and sing one more "Hallelujah"
Give your praise to the Lord
I could never tell you just how much
Good that it's bound to do you

Just to let the name of the Lord
Be praised both for now and ever more
Praise Him oh ye servants

Praise the name of the Lord
Come on everybody
Stand up and sing one more "Hallelujah"
Give your praise to the Lord
I could never tell you just how much
Good that it's bound to do you

Just to sing (Sing sing sing)
The praises of the Lord (Sing sing sing)
And everybody sing (Sing sing sing)
The praises of the Lord (Sing sing sing)"
