Praisin’ My King

by Susan Cantey © 2002

 

   I wanna be a bright star shinin’ in the midnight,

   Headlight beamin’ through the twilight,

   A strong light, shinin’ like the sunlight,

   Light of the world shinin’ through me!

 

  Wanna lift You Lord for all to see,

  What a wonderful God you’ve been to me.

  Wanna lift You high so the world will know,

  There’s no other place to go; no other place to go.

           

  I wanna be good salt, salt of the earth.

  Giving flavor and preserving the worth,

  Bringing relief to the bland and the stale,

  Seasoning both the body and soul.

 

  Gonna praise You in my private hours.

  Gonna praise You in the street.

  When I praise You, I can feel Your power.

  It knocks me offa ma feet!  It knocks me offa my feet!        

  Praisin’ my King, praisin’ my King,

  I wanna keep on praisin’ my King.

  Praisin’ my King, praisin’ my King,

  I wanna keep on praisin’ my King!
