Praise (4:45)

Let everything, That has breath, Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord

Let everything, That has breath, Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord

 

I'll praise in the valley, Praise on the mountain, 

I'll praise when I'm sure, And praise when I'm doubting,

 

I'll praise when outnumbered, Praise when surrounded

'Cause praise is the water, My enemies drown in

 

As long as I'm breathing, I've got a reason to 

Praise the Lord, Oh, my soul 

Praise the Lord, Oh, my soul 

 

I'll praise when I feel it, And I'll praise when I don't

I'll praise 'cause I know, You're still in control

 

Because my praise is a weapon, It's more than a sound

Oh, my praise is the shout, That brings Jericho down

 

As long as I'm breathing, I've got a reason to 

Praise the Lord, Oh, my soul 

Praise the Lord, Oh, my soul 

 

I won't be quiet, my God is alive, So how could I keep it inside?

 

Praise the Lord, Oh, my soul

 

I'll praise 'cause You're sovereign, Praise 'cause You reign

Praise 'cause You rose and defeated the grave

 

I'll praise 'cause You're faithful, Praise 'cause You're true

Praise 'cause there's nobody greater than You, 

 

I'll praise 'cause You're sovereign, praise 'cause You reign

Praise 'cause You rose and defeated the grave

 

I'll praise 'cause You're faithful, Praise 'cause You're true

Praise 'cause there's nobody greater than You

 

Praise the Lord, Oh, my soul 

Praise the Lord, Oh, my soul 

 

Praise the Lord, Oh, my soul 

Praise the Lord, Oh, my soul 

 

I won't be quiet, my God is alive, How could I keep it inside?

I won't be quiet, My God is alive, How could I keep it inside?

I won't be quiet, my God is alive, How could I keep it inside?

 

Praise the Lord, Oh, my soul 

 

Let everything, That has breath

Hey, hey (praise the Lord)

Hey, hey (praise the Lord)

 

Let everything (let everything)

Come on, come on (that has breath)

Come on, come on (praise the Lord)

Come on, come on (praise the Lord)

 

Let everything (let everything)

That has breath (that has breath)

Praise the Lord (praise the Lord)

 

Goodness of God (4:00)

I love You, Lord, Oh, Your mercy never failed me

And all my days, I've been held in Your hands

From the moment that I wake up, Until I lay my head

Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God

 

All my life You have been faithful

All my life You have been so, so good

With every breath that I am able

Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God

 

I love Your voice, You have led me through the fire

In darkest night You are close like no other

I've known You as a Father, I've known You as a Friend

Oh, I have lived in the goodness of God, 

 

And all my life You have been faithful

All my life You have been so, so good

With every breath that I am able

Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God

 

Your goodness is running after, it's running after me

Your goodness is running after, it's running after me

With my life laid down, I'm surrendered now, I give You everything

'Cause Your goodness is running after, it's running after me

Your goodness is running after, it's running after me

Your goodness is running after, it's running after me

 

With my life laid down, I'm surrendered now

I give You everything

'Cause Your goodness is running, It keeps running after me

 

All my life You have been faithful

All my life You have been so, so good

With every breath that I am able

Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God

 

Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God

 

When the Heart Cries Medley 

When the heart cries, only God can hear you

The pain grows from within the soul

A man falls before sinking 

In a little prayer breaks the silence with

Hear oh Israel my God 

who can do all things, 

You gave me my life 

you gave me everything, 

Tears in my eyes 

The heart in silence is crying 

And when the heart is silent, 

the soul is screaming

Hear (oh) Israel my God, 

now I am so alone 

Make me strong my God, make my fear gone

The pain is high 

and there's no place to run for 

Make it so it ends

Because my strength is no more.

 

When the heart cries, 

Time stops moving

The man sees the journey of his life

To the unknown has no desire going

To his God he calls from the brink of the deep

 

Hear oh…

Peace don’t grow on trees (4:27)

Written by Barak Zelig in 12  DEC 2021

 

I can’t make up my mind                

My thought process behind

All my teeth were grind

My vision is blind

 

My girl just said2;55

Flee! The world’s gone mad

We need to end this war

in 2024

 

Peace don’t grow on trees

Peace if you please

For peace you need keys

To con your enemies

 

We need to run

God is holding a gun

To the humans’ head

Don’t count all the dead

 

Selfish marchers lead

They are full of greed

Money makes you fight

Till the end of the night

 

Peace don’t grow on trees

Peace if you please

For peace you need keys

To con your enemies

 

My girl just died

She took my heart to hide

And I had to stand

When my spirit detained

 

I see all the shame

Heaven had no train

When I’ll reach the end

Yearn for peace will remain

 

Peace don’t grow on trees

Peace if you please

For peace you need keys

To con your enemies

 

War mongers’ breed

Gasp a daily feed

Ego makes us bleed

When hate is the seed

 

So we need to run

God is holding a gun

To the human’s head

No need to pretend

 

Peace don’t grow on trees

Peace if you please

For peace you need keys

To con your enemies
