When you lift your hands up high
And you sing a song of praise
To Me
It brings Me great delight
Such a lovely sight
And yes it is true
Praise looks good on you
Morning, night, and noon
Your praise ascends to Heaven
Like the smell of a sweet perfume
Filling every room
And yes it is true
Praise looks good on you
You bring your sacrifice
And you offer up your praise
You lift your voice with singing
But your heart seems far away
More than a sacrifice
I am looking for your life
Holy and acceptable
And pleasing in My sight
So offer up your lives
Holy and acceptable
A willing sacrifice
Precious in My sight
But in all that you do
Remember all I want is you
So lift your hands up high
And worship Him
Before the altar
Consecrate your life
A willing sacrifice
But in all that you do
Remember all He wants is you
And yes it is true
Praise looks good on you
