Everybody Ought To Praise His Name

Oh I woke up early this morning My heart was beating right on time I said lord I truly thank you For opening up these eyes of mine Then I went over to my window And while looking through the shades Once again I had to tell him Thank you Lord for letting me see another day Now the sun was bright and shining The wind was blowing not too strong In a tree top just a few feet away Was a robin singing a song I don't know what he was singing And pretty soon he was on his way Who can say he wasn't being grateful And saying thank you for another day Everybody ought to praise his name Be thankful and praise his name Everybody ought to praise his name Yea yea 'Cause if a robin can say thank you You can do it too Now the sun was bright and shining The wind was blowing not too strong In a tree top just a few feet away A robin was singing a song I don't know what he was singing And pretty soon he was on his way Who can say he wasn't being grateful And saying thank you for another day Everybody ought to praise his name Be thankful and praise his name Everybody ought to praise his name Yea yea 'Cause if a robin can say thank you You can do it too Everybody ought to praise his name Be thankful and praise his name Everybody ought to praise his name Yea yea, 'Cause if a robin can say thank you You can do it too Oh oh you ought to praise his name Be thankful and praise his name Everybody ought to praise his name Hmm hmm 'Cause if a robin can say thank you You can do it too Hey hey you got to praise his name Be thankful and praise his name Everybody ought to praise his name Yea yea 'Cause if a robin can say thank you You can do it too
