[Verse]
Praised be The Lord to girl and boy.
I’ll praise The Lord and sing of joy!
Thank you, my Lord for giving life,
for making me both child and wife!
[Verse 2]
You give me clothing, give me food.
You see to it I’m sleeping good.
You give me shelter, give me house.
To some on earth You are the spouse.
[Chorus]
I’ll praise The Lord and sing of joy!
I’ll praise The Lord and sing of joy!
I’ll praise The Lord and sing of joy!
His presence I enjoy!
[Verse 3]
In portions You do give me fame.
The Lord You are, Christ is Your name.
You are God. By the Father’s Son
one’s life is made, and life is done.
[Verse 4]
La la la la, la la la la,
la la la la, la la la la,
la la la la, la la la la.
I’ll praise The Lord and sing of joy!
[Chorus]
I’ll praise The Lord and sing of joy!
I’ll praise The Lord and sing of joy!
I’ll praise The Lord and sing of joy!
His presence I enjoy!
[Bridge]
The boy and girl, in either way,
do praise the Son, your rule obey.
Mariah once anointed You.
May all the world let culture do.
[Chorus]
I’ll praise The Lord and sing of joy!
I’ll praise The Lord and sing of joy!
I’ll praise The Lord and sing of joy!
His presence I enjoy!
