Lyrics
Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise the Lord
Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise the Lord
Omnipotent, Almighty King, Died on a Cross, but Rose Again
He Rose Again, He Rose Again, Thank God Almighty He rose again
Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise the Lord
Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise the Lord
This Old Cross full of shame it's calling out calling out my name
I'll pick up this cross, I'll pick up this cross, Thank God Almighty, I'll pick up this cross
Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise the Lord
Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise the Lord
He's coming back, He's coming back again
And all His angels will be with Him
The dead in Christ will rise again, Thank God Almighty, They'll rise again
Yes they will rise again
Yes they will rise again
This Old Cross full of shame it's calling out, calling out my name
I'll pick up this cross, I'll pick up this cross, Thank God Almighty, I'll pick up this cross
And I will follow Him
Yes, I will follow Him.
