That’s The Thing About Praise

[Verse 1: Blessing Offor]
When the rain you want is a flood instead
And the roses bloom, but they're not quite red
And when I reach the edge of my bravery
I'll still be singin' at the banks of an un-parted sea

[Chorus: Blessing Offor, Benjamin William Hastings, Both]
Sometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah
(The only way through it is a hallelujah)
Sometimes the only thing to do is just to give it to You
(The only thing to do is just to give it to You)
And though my troubles shake me
I know they will never move You
Sometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah
(Hallеlujah)
That's why I say hallelujah
Hallelujah

[Verse 2: Benjamin William Hastings]
Therе's what I want and then there's where I'm at
Every one step forward, it got me five steps back
And I cried, I called, God knows I prayed
But most days faith is climbin' up a mountain that stayed

[Chorus: Benjamin William Hastings, Blessing Offor, Both]
That's why the only way through it is a hallelujah
(The only way through it is a hallelujah)
Sometimes the only thing to do is just to hand it to You
(The only thing to do is just to hand it to You)
And although my troubles shake me
I know they could never move You
Sometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah
(Hallelujah)
Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
That's why I say hallelujah
Hallelujah

[Bridge: Benjamin William Hastings, Blessing Offor, Both]
It don't always fix your problems
But it'll tell you how small they are
That's the thing about praise
That's the thing about praise
It won't always move the mountain
But it's good for the heart
That's the thing about praise
That's the thing about praise
You'll never know what it's gonna change
But it'll always leave a mark
That's the thing about praise
That's the thing about praise
Yeah, I might see walls start fallin'
Or it might just change my heart
That's the thing about praise
That's the thing about praise (Oh)
That's the thing about praise
That's the thing about praise, woah

[Chorus: Blessing Offor, Benjamin William Hastings, Both]
And the only way through it is a hallelujah
(The only way through it is a hallelujah)
Sometimes the only thing to do is just to hand it to You
(The only thing to do is just to hand it to You)
And although my troubles shake me
I know they could never move You
The only way through it is a hallelujah
(Hallelujah)

[Outro: Blessing Offor, Benjamin William Hastings]
That's the thing about praise
You never know what it'll change, change, change
That's why I say hallelujah
Hallelujah
Oh, that's the thing about praise
You don't even know what it's about to change (You never know what it'll change, change, change)
That's why I say hallelujah (Hey)
Hallelujah
