"POSITIVE PRAISE"

Verse 1 [Spoken]
Early one morning while lyin’ in bed
A problem I had popped into my head.
It seemed kinda harmless, at least at first,
But thinking more about it just made it worse.
Bigger and bigger it grew in size,
Was magnified before my eyes.
But then the clouds began to part
When a still, small voice spoke to my heart.

Chorus
Get positive, positive! Go on the attack.
Raise your voice, shout and sing! Drive the Old Boy back!
Count your blessings and thank God for all He has done!
The power of positive praise
Puts the Devil on the run!

Verse 2 [Spoken]
It’s the Devil's business to nag and nag,
To pull you down and make you drag.
There’s plenty to pick on, and he really tries,
But hit ‘im with the Word right between the eyes.
Take action! Go help someone else.
Stop worryin' so much about yourself.
And chase away the shades of night
By lettin' in God’s light.

Chorus 2
Get positive, positive! Go on the attack.
Raise your voice, shout and sing! Drive the Old Boy back!
Count your blessings and thank God for all He has done!
The power of positive praise
Puts the Devil on the run!

Bridge [a cappella]
Swing your Word sword ‘round and ‘round
And cut that negative thinking down.
Quote a verse! Sing a song!
The power of positive praise is strong!

Chorus 3
Get positive, positive! Go on the attack.
Raise your voice, shout and sing! Drive the Old Boy back!
Count your blessings and thank God for all He has done!
There’s power in positive praise!

Chorus 4
Positive, positive! Go on the attack.
Raise your voice, shout and sing! Drive the Old Boy back!
Count your blessings and thank God for all He has done!
The power of positive praise
Will work for you always!
The power of positive praise
Puts the Devil on the run!
