Reason of Praise

My heart races, being compelled to praise 
Worshiping in His presence, my hands
 to raise
Admiring my Lord with a shout in my soul
Thanking God for being made whole

Singing with the choir as our voices 
become one
Exalting our Saviour: God's only
 begotten Son
Opening our hearts to let God have control
While songs of praise doth continually flow

Preaching the gospel of the Lord, our source
As God's word brings the sinner to remorse
Praying on the altar and in the pews
For all to hear the wonderful news

Salvation is free to all who come
Call upon the Lord and all is done
The rejoicing in heaven is like ringing
 a bell
Cause one more soul has been saved 
from hell

Worthy is our God who has paid the price
Only faith in the Lord Jesus will suffice
The prayers and praise and singing of song
Is because he is our God to whom we belong

The worship of the Father is heartfelt 
and pure
When one is saved and they know it for sure
