Behind The Song: Micah Tyler Shares The Heart Behind His Song “Praise The Lord”

This week’s featured song story comes to us from Micah Tyler. We’re excited to share with you the story behind his song “Praise The Lord.”

“My new song ‘Praise the Lord’ may seem a little bit simple, but at the end of the day, it’s got a little depth to it. If you look back at the text in Judges chapter 20, whenever Israel would go into battle, the tribe of Judah would lead the way. Why? Because Judah means praise. Praise is how we begin our battles. We fight our battles by loving Jesus and knowing that we can trust Him no matter what. In this world, there will be trouble, but we take heart because He has overcome the world. For that, we can praise the Lord.” – Micah Tyler

“Praise The Lord” Lyrics

I remember when a long lost sinner
Met a good, good God
I remember when my heart was broken
But now it’s not

I’ve tasted and I’ve seen
You’ve been so good to me
From the moment that You changed my life God
You never stopped

I’m gonna sing it
I’m gonna shout it
I’m gonna lift my hands and praise
No matter what is gonna come my way
All You’ve done for me
I give You the glory
From the valley to the victory
I know my God is gonna fight for me
So when the devil come try to get me
Gonna praise the Lord
When the devil come try to get me
Gonna praise the Lord

From the moment when the sun starts rising
Till the sun goes down (sun goes down)
I’m surrounded by a million mercies
I can feel them now

I’ve tasted and I’ve seen
You’ve been so good to me
Got a melody inside my heart oh
Here’s a sweet, sweet sound

In every high
In every low
My hope is found in Christ alone
And here on earth when I get home
My hope is found in Christ alone

And I’m gonna sing it
Come praise the Lord
Come praise the Lord
Come praise the Lord
Come praise the Lord

I’m gonna sing it (come praise the Lord)
I’m gonna shout it (come praise the Lord)
I’m gonna lift my hands and praise
No matter what is gonna come my way
All You’ve done for me (come praise the Lord)
I give You the glory (come praise the Lord)
From the valley to the victory
I know my God is gonna fight for me
So when the devil come try to get me
Gonna praise the Lord
When the devil come try to get me
Gonna praise the Lord

So when the devil come try to get me
Gonna praise the Lord
When the devil come try to get me
Gonna praise the Lord
