Fred Hammond - Festival of Praise by Fred Hammond lyrics

[INTRO] 1 Chronicles chapter 16 verses 8-12 "Give thanks unto the Lord Call upon his name Make known his deeds among the people Sing unto him Sing songs unto him Talk ye of all his wondrous works Glory ye in his holy name Let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord Seek the Lord in his strength Seek his face continually Remember his marvelous works that he hath done His wonders and the judgments of his mouth Thus the word of the Lord" Now I'd like to take this time to welcome you Yeah, you! So come on in I'm glad you're here, my friend Now that you've arrived Let's get this party started Yeah, it's time to begin It's time to sing and dance A big ol' family celebration People all over the world Yeah, they came to celebrate the Lord of all creation And if you didn't know, let me tell ya It's gonna be all the way live We got plenty to drink, yeah But it's a brand new wine Now the guest of honor is both lion and lamb The Savior of all the world He is the great I Am So from the bottom of my heart with this single phrase Let me welcome you to the festival of praise Come on!
