Celebration Song Lyrics
Let There Be Joy
Chorus:
Let there be joy, let there be be peace
Let there be power, let there be praise
Let there be joy, joy in the Holy Ghost
It was for freedom that we were set free
Let every mountain be cast to the sea
Let there be joy, joy in the Holy Ghost
Verse 1:
We will declare it to the heavens
The righteousness of God in which we stand
We will proclaim it to the nations
Every eye shall see, every ear shall hear
Every heart will understand
Glorious Day
Who could carry that kind of weight?
It was my tomb
‘Til I met You
All my failures I tried to hide
It was my tomb
‘Til I met You
Then I ran out of that grave
Into Your glorious day
And I ran out of that grave
Into Your glorious day
Now Your freedom is all that I know
The old made new
Jesus, when I met You, whoa, what a day
And I ran out of that grave
You called my name
Then I ran out of that grave
Into Your glorious day
My sin was heavy
But chains break at the weight of Your glory
I was an orphan
But You call me a citizen of Heaven
When I was broken
You were my healing
Now Your love is the air that I’m breathing
I have a future
My eyes are open
I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day
You called my name
And I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day
Awesome God
He ain’t just putting on the ritz
And lightning in His fists
When He kicked ’em out of Eden
And it wasn’t for no reason
That He shed His blood
His return is very close
So you better be believing that
Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from Heaven above
With wisdom power and love
In the void of the night
And created the light
He poured out on the Sodom
I hope that you have not
Too quickly forgotten that
Our God is an awesome God
Praise
Verse 1
I’ll praise in the valley
Praise on the mountain
I’ll praise when I’m sure
Praise when I’m doubting
Verse 2
I’ll praise when outnumbered
Praise when surrounded
Cause praise is the waters
My enemies drown in

As long as I’m breathing
I’ve got a reason to
Chorus 1
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Verse 3
I’ll praise when I feel it
I’ll praise when I don’t
I’ll praise cause I know
You’re still in control
Verse 4
My praise is a weapon
It’s more than a sound
My praise is the shout
That brings Jericho down

As long as I’m breathing
I’ve got a reason to

Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul

I won’t be quiet
My God is alive
How could I keep it inside
Praise the Lord my soul
Bridge
I’ll praise cause You’re sovereign
Praise cause You reign
Praise cause You rose
And defeated the grave
I’ll praise cause You’re faithful
Praise cause You’re true
Praise cause there’s nobody
Greater than You
Chorus 1
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul

My God is alive
How could I keep it inside

How could I keep it inside
Praise the Lord my soul

Let everything
That has breath
Praise the Lord

Stand beside her and guide her
Through the night with the light from above
To the oceans white with foam
God bless America, my home sweet home
