Sometimes when I'm feeling down

And the devil comes around

I start to make a joyful sound

 That he cannot ig nore

It's a heavenly idea

Guaranteed to make him flee-yah

Perfect panacea

 Seven ways to praise the Lord

Chorus

 TODAH - sacrifice of praise

 YADAH - let your hands be raised

 BAROUCH- with a quiet voice

 HALLEL - let your soul rejoice

 ZAMAR - play for Him a song

 TEHILLAH - you can sing along

 SHABACH - shout for joy!

 That's seven ways to praise the Lord

II.

Congregation gone to sleep

Sermon must have been too deep

Pitiful sight, but at least

 They're all in one accord

Sunday services are very

Much like any cemetery

Someone ought to tell them

 Seven ways to praise the Lord

III.

Calypso Chorus itemizes

What the scriptures emphasizes

Seven holy exercises

 That magnify the Lord

So practice each one faithfully

And very soon you're sure to see

That you have found a hundred

 Brand-new ways to praise the Lord!
