Praise the Lord

I was living in the world, depression always would overtake me. Maybe it was the songs I'd listen to (they'd make me feel blue). Or the fighting around me (made it hard for me to see).

But one day, I met her (funny, how God sends people in your life). All I remember is how, without any shame or fear, she would blurt out. "Praise the LORD!"

At first, it felt so awkward. From the world's point of view. But the more, and more I heard her words, I thought.. (hmm..) "I want to be like you!"

After time had past. I met the greatest Friend, my heart could ever comprehend. (It was Him, it was Him.) And I'd read what He wanted me to hear. (From His book of love). Each word ringing true.

It's funny how God sends friends into your life. And in some way, (He starts to heal you).

I started to hear, her as she blurted out.

"Praise the LORD!" And I found myself understanding her words. And the awkwardness I once had felt. It had disappeared. My heart felt it too.. "Praise the LORD!" (Mmmhmm..)

"Praise the LORD" my greatest friend is now You... Praise the LORD.. (praise the Lord)..
