Radical Praise
Beverly Crawford Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Gotta get radical these days
Gotta let the world know
That you're saved
Gotta get radical with your praise
Living in the last days (last days)
I wanna thank Him for His saving grace
See the signs of the times
You gotta be renewed by your mind

God is on His way back
Gotta get on the right track
So the true test of the saints is
What kind of praise can you give?
There is no time to waste
Gotta move fast to make haste
Everybody in the building (3x)
You need to get up off your seat
Clap your hands, move your feet
If you got the praise & you believe
Come on & get radical with me
Give God the praise
Can you give it?
Give God the praise, come on
Give God the praise

Can you give it?
Give God
