JUMP AND SHOUT AND PRAISE THE LORD
You gotta jump and shout and praise the Lord
You gotta jump and shout and praise the Lord
You gotta pump your arms and turn around
Stamp your feet and hit the ground

Wave your hands in the air
You’ve got to wave your hands in the air
You’ve got to wave your hands in the air
You’ve got to make some noise for the Lord of lords
Wave your hands in the air
You’ve got to wave your hands in the air
You’ve got to wave your hands in the air
You’ve got to make some noise for the Lord of lords
Jump and shout or you won’t be heard

Now get down upon your knees
You got to all get down upon your knees
And when we’ve got down there you’re gonna praise with me
‘Cos we can slap the floor on either side
Clap your hands in front behind

Pat your head and slap your thighs
You got to pat your head and slap your thighs
You got to pat your head and slap your thighs
You got to slap the floor on either side
Clap your hands in front, behind

Ralph Ward
