[Verse 1]
G
When you're up against a struggle
C
That shatters all your dreams
G
Your hope's been cruelly crushed
C
By Satan's manifested scheme
Em
And you feel the urge within you
C
To submit to earthly fears
G
Don't let the faith your standing in
C Am
Seem to disappear
[Chorus]
C
Praise the Lord
Am
He can work through those who praise Him
G
Praise the Lord
Em
For our God inhabits praise
Am
Praise the Lord
C D
For the chains that seem to bind you
Am D
Serve only to remind you
C D
That they drop powerless behind you
C G C D
When you praise Him
[Verse 2]
G
Now Satan is a liar
C
And he wants to make us think
G
That we are paupers when he knows himself
C
We're children of the King
Em
So lift up the mighty shield of faith
C
For the battle must be won
G
We know that Jesus Christ is risen
C Am
So the works already done
[Chorus]
C
Praise the Lord
Am
He can work through those who praise Him
G
Praise the Lord
Em
For our God inhabits praise
Am
Praise the Lord
C D
For the chains that seem to bind you
Am D
Serve only to remind you
C D
That they drop powerless behind you
C G C D
When you praise Him
