I Lift My Praise

from Shadow Lands by C. James Conrad

/

about

We are created to worship God.

An accepted physical response to worship is raising one's hands.
What keeps me from raising my hands in worship?

Imagine your hands as hot air balloons.
The things that keep us emotionally distant from God are the sand bags.
When I let go of my emotional baggage, my hands rise up in praise.

lyrics

When I let go of my pride
When I drop all my defenses
When I forfeit all my rights
My hands rise up towards heaven

When my fears have been released
When I let loose of my treasures
When I set my debtors free
My hands rise up towards heaven

My hands rise up in praise
As I come prepared to worship
My hands rise up in praise
For You have set me free
My hands rise up in praise
As I’m standing here before You
Father I lift my praise

When I let go of my pride
When I drop all my defenses
When I forfeit all my rights
My hands rise up towards heaven

When my fears have been released
When I let loose of my treasures
When I set my debtors free
My hands rise up towards heaven

My hands rise up in praise
As I come prepared to worship
My hands rise up in praise
For You have set me free
My hands rise up in praise
As I’m standing here before You
Father I lift my praise
