Praise the Lord lyrics by Haley Hopper Jock

God has entrusted my baby girl, Haley, with an amazing song-writing ability, and through Mom's departure to heaven was given yet another opportunity to magnify His great name & honor her Memama's memory....I wanted to share the lyrics with everyone. For those who attended the funeral, I know you were blessed to hear Haley sing & play the piano during the family remembrances time. I would ask that you pray that God would take this song and if it His will, provided an open door to be used in a greater way to inspire and woo others to Jesus.

Praise the Lord

Oh Lord, I praise You
because You made her so wonderfully
Oh Lord, You knew her unborn frame
You knew everyday ordained

We walk, we struggle,
we lift our eyes to the hills,
and we say Praise the Lord!

Praise the Lord
Oh my soul,
Praise the Lord!

Oh Lord, You satisfy the years
wipe away all the tears
Oh Lord, how blessed was she
heart-set on the road towards Thee

She walked, she struggled,
she'd lift her eyes to the hills,
and she'd say Praise the Lord!

Praise the Lord,
Oh my soul,
Praise the Lord!

The generation to come will know
even the children yet to be born
that You are God- You are King
because she never failed to sing...

Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord,
Oh my soul, Praise the Lord!

She praised the Lord,
She Praised the Lord,
she's finally home,
Praise the Lord!
