It's a Good Time to Praise

When I think about the things I have that heaven sent my way

My friends and family, this old house and the food that's on our plate

I can't believe the goodness You've been pouring out on me

Yeah, through highs and lows, You've been my rock and that ain't hard to see

The gratitude within my heart is an easy song to sing

I praise the Lord

'Cause every breath I take Is only 'cause You gave it

I praise the Lord

'Cause every step I take is covered in Your favor

So why in the world wouldn't I lift up my hands and thank Him?

I've got a good life, a good God, so it's a good time

To praise the Lord

I thought my life had passed me by, I thought my dreams were taken

But You redeem and go beyond My wildest expectations

And now the stories that I love to tell all start with my mistakes and

Go on to show how good You are and how nothing with You's wasted

And I don't know what else to do, so I'll just keep on praising

I praise the Lord

'Cause every breath I take Is only 'cause You gave it

I praise the Lord

'Cause every step I take is covered in Your favor

So why in the world wouldn't I lift up my hands and thank Him?

I've got a good life, a good God, so it's a good time

To praise the Lord

Woah, oh, oh

Blessings come and go like seasons

But I'm never without reasons

To bless Your name and give it all back to You

Keep Your eye upon this sparrow

Help me to see the straight and narrow

As I bless Your name and give it all back to You

Oh, I give it all back, give it all back to You

Yeah, I will give it all back, give it all back to You

I praise the Lord

'Cause every breath I take Is only 'cause You gave it

I praise the Lord

'Cause every step I take is covered in Your favor

So why in the world wouldn't I lift up my hands and thank Him?

I've got a good life, a good God, so it's a good time

To praise the Lord

(Give it all back, give it all back to You)

Yeah, I will give it all back, give it all back to You

I praise the Lord
