Save Your Voice (quiet Down Boy) by Apologetix
Save Your Voice (quiet Down Boy) lyrics
When I walk in doom and gloom
Stressin� �bout a hundred different bills, man, it kills any thrill
Like a thorn stuck in Cinderella�s heel
And I�m bothered by a couple pounds I�ve found
I think my body�s getting� round and this clown
Ain�t never gonna be the same
But the battle is the Lord�s and I might as well get busy
I�m makin� God annoyed when I wallow in self pity
Fightin� must be done God�s way and God told us rejoice
When the world says, save your voice, quiet down, boy
Yeah, the Bible say, Praise the Lord nice and loud, boy
When I don�t give Him thanks about nothin�
I�m sinkin� in bleak thinkin� � my morale�s a stinkin�
Don�t get down!
And I wouldn�t trade my reward up in Heaven's gates
For success that fades or some cheap charade
And there�s not a long wait left anyhow
And the battle is the Lord�s and He�ll fight it to the finish
I�m raisin� up my voice, and it works like Popeye�s spinach
Fightin� must be done God�s way and God told us rejoice
When the world says, save your voice, quiet down, boy
Then the Bible says, Praise the Lord nice and loud, boy
I was full of dread 'bout what's ahead
I looked back at what God did when Christ was sweatin' blood
God's Son got onto that Calvary road
When I find that I'm inclined to whine, havin' myself a rigorous time
I'll be knowin' this is not as far as He had to go
A thorough evaluation of my final destination
Had me thank Him for salvation all life long
So I look to God, He's big and strong
He can use it when my whole world's wrong
I figure if I really know His Son I should speak up when things get rough
And the battle is the Lord�s and my attitude is lifting
I make a lot of noise, like it says in Psalm 150
Fightin� must be done God�s way and God told us rejoice
When the world says, save your voice, quiet down, boy
Then the Bible says, Praise the Lord nice and loud, boy
Psalm 150:6
Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD.
