O LORD, WHEN I WAKE UP in the morning,
Let my mouth be filled with praise for You.
O Lord, when I go out in the evening,
Let my mouth be filled with praise for You.
That all might know, yeah,
And many might see, yeah,
That You’re my Lord.
Fill me with a spirit of boldness, O my God,
And come and take all of my shame;
That I might see temptation
Melt before my eyes
And watch the demons flee in Jesus’ name,
As we lift high the name.
Lift high the name of the Lord.
Lift high the name of the Lord.
That many might know,
That many might see my Lord.
O Lord, when I’m stressed and feeling tired,
Let my mouth be filled with praise to You.
O Lord, when I’m pressed on every side,
Let my mouth be filled with praise to You.
That all might know, yeah,
And many might see, yeah,
That You are Lord.
