This Is The Day

Turn it up, yeah!
Oh, just clap yo hands like this, ah
Just clap your hands like this, ah

Yeah, let's wake up the church with this old school jam
Shout to the lord in here
You know that he's good and his mercy endureth forever
And the people of God said, they said what?

And the people of God said, "yeah" (and the people of God said, "yeah")
And the people of God said, "yeah" (the people of God said, "yeah")
And the people of God said, "yeah"
And the people of God said, "yeah"

Now we serve notice to depression, confusion
All maner of evil, and every sickness
You can in to bind, but you cannot stay
'Cause the people of God, we ain't havin' it
It's a good day even though I cried last Tuesday
And I was out of cash by Friday
No matter what comes next, I'm gonna stand up and give him the praise
'Cause this is the day

This is the day (this is the day), this is the day
(That the lord) that the Lord has made (has made)

(Come on, somebody, oh)

As I look back over all the years that I made it through
I can't imagine (oh-oh) where I'd be now (oh-oh) if it wasn't for you (wasn't for you)
Why your favor rests upon me I could never explain (your favor is just what I needed)
Why your favor rests upon me I could never explain (your favor is just what I needed)
Why your favor rests upon me I could never explain (your favor is just what I needed)
But I'm so glad that I can say
(I will) I will rejoice (oh!)
(Just put your hands together like this, uh)

(And the peole of God, say it!)
And the people of God said, "yeah" (to his word)
And the people of God said, "yeah" (his will and his way)
And the people of God said, "yeah" (people of God, say it)
And the people of God said, "yeah" (turn this thing around, oh)

Boom!
