Marvin Sapp - Praise Him in Advance Lyrics

I've had my share of ups and downs
Times when there was no one around
God came and spoke these words to me
Praise will confuse the enemy

I've had my share of ups and downs
Times when there was no one around
God came and spoke these words to me
Praise will confuse the enemy

So I started singing, oh, oh (I started singing, I started clapping)
(I started dancing) people were laughing (people were laughing)
They knew my problems, they knew my pain
But I knew God would take them away, yeah

I've had my share of ups and downs
Times when there was no one around
God came and spoke these words to me
Praise will confuse the enemy

So I started singing, oh, oh (I started singing, I started clapping)
I started dancing, people were laughing (people were laughing)
They knew my problems, and they knew my pain
But I knew God would take them away

That's why I praise Him with my hands
That's why I praise Him with a dance
He's given me a second chance
Come on let's praise Him in advance

That's why I praise Him with a song
When things are right and when they're wrong
For he's given me a second chance
Come on let's praise Him in advance

Praise Him
Come on in here (praise Him)
Open your mouth (praise Him)
Bless the Lord (praise Him)
Praise Him (praise)
Come on praise (praise)
Come on and praise Him (praise Him in advance)

Everybody praise Him (praise Him)
Open your mouth (praise Him)
Can I come in? (Praise Him)
Tell your story (praise Him)
Bless him, baby (praise Him
Come on everybody (praise Him)
Praise Him in advance

Praise Him (praise Him)
In the good times (praise Him)
Praise Him (praise Him)
When things are going wrong (praise Him)
Praise Him (praise Him)
Come in here (praise Him)
Come on and praise Him in advance, oh

Praise Him (praise Him)
Bless the Lord (praise Him)
He is worthy (praise Him)
Come on in here (praise Him)
For my life (for my life)
I will praise Him
Praise Him in advance

Oh oh praise Him
When things are good (praise Him)
Praise Him (praise)
Trouble on every side (praise)
And when I'm broke (when I'm broken)
I will praise Him
Praise Him in advance, oh oh

Oh oh (oh oh)
Oh oh (oh oh)
Oh oh (oh oh)
Oh oh (oh oh)
Oh oh oh oh oh
Come on and praise Him in advance

Come on, oh oh (oh oh)

One more time, one more time
Oh oh (oh oh)
Sometimes I don't know the words to say (oh oh)
I say oh oh (oh oh)
Oh oh (oh oh)
Oh oh oh oh oh
Come on and praise Him in advance
