Paul and Silas (At Midnight) Lyrics Naomi Raine
And at midnight
Paul and Silas prayed inside that prison
Singing hymns to God, the prisoners listened
Little did they know what would come next
(Oh) All of a sudden
The earth began to quake and the foundation
Of that jail began to shake the door flung open
The chains of all the prisoners came loose
So don't tell me what praise cannot do
The sound of our faith makes the mountains move
And I'm not waiting till the morning
I will worship You right now
No, I'm not waiting till the morning
Oh, I will worship...
In Your midnight (yeah)
When thoughts are building up just like a prison
Don't forget your song, the Father's listening
To every melody and every word
(Oh yeah, oh yeah) Every word (oh yeah)
This is the breakthrough
What if God is doing something brand new?
There are other people coming with you
And freedom is the door we're walking through, oh
So don't tell me what praise cannot do
The sound of our faith makes the mountains move
Let's build Him a home with our praise
For nothing can hold back the Father's grace
(Say) I'm not waiting till the morning
(I will, I will) I will worship You right now
(Not gonna wait till the morning) I'm not waiting till the morning
(I will worship You right now) I will worship You right now
(I'm not gonna wait till the morning) I'm not waiting till the morning
(I will, I will, I will) I will worship You right now
(Oh, I'm not waiting) I'm not waiting till the morning
('Cause I will worship You right now) I will worship
So why wait
When praise is happening now
I won't wait
I won't let a rock cry out
In my place
You've been too good to wait
He's been too good to hold my praise
Why wait
When praise is happening now
I won't wait
Won't let a rock cry out
In my place
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to hold my praise
Why wait
When praise is happening now
I won't wait
Won't let a rock cry out
In my place
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to hold my praise
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to hold my praise
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to hold my praise
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to hold my praise
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to hold my praise
So I won't hold my praise, yeah
I won't hold... (I won't hold my praise)
'Cause He didn't hold back His goodness
(I won't hold my praise)
Because He didn't hold back His grace
(I won't hold my praise)
I won't hold
(I won't hold my praise)
I won't
(I won't hold my praise)
I won't let a rock cry out for me
(I won't hold my praise)
I won't, oh
(I won't hold my praise)
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to hold my praise
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to wait
He's been too good to hold my praise
I won't hold my praise
(I won't hold my praise)
I won't hold my praise
(I won't hold my praise)
No, I won't hold my praise
(I won't hold my praise)
No, I won't hold my praise
(I won't hold my praise)
I got a praise, I won't hold my praise
(I won't hold my praise)
I've got a praise, I won't hold my praise
(I won't hold my praise)
He's worthy now, I won't hold my praise
(I won't hold my praise)
He's worthy now, I won't hold my praise
(I won't hold my praise)
He's worthy now
He's worthy now
He's worthy now
He's holy now
He's holy now
He's sovereign now
He's sovereign now
He's faithful now
He's worthy now
He's holy now
He's sovereign now
He's faithful now
He's worthy now
He's holy now
He's sovereign now
He's righteous now
He's faithful now
He's faithful now
He's faithful now
He's sovereign now
He's good now
He's good now
So I won't hold my praise
I'm not waiting till the morning
I will worship You right now
(Sing it out, sing) I'm not waiting till the morning
(I'm not waiting, I will) I will worship You right now
(No, I'm not waiting eh-eh) I'm not waiting till the morning
(You can't make me be quiet 'cause) I will worship You right now
(You can't make me be silent 'cause) I'm not waiting till the morning
(You can't make me stop singing) I will worship You right now
Jeremiah said it's like fire
Jeremiah said it's like fire
Hey, Jeremiah said it's like fire
(You can't make me be quiet)
Jeremiah said it's like fire
(Shut up in my bones, oh)
Jeremiah said it's like fire
(Shut up in my bones, eh-eh)
Jeremiah said it's like fire
So don't tell me what praise cannot do (Hey)
The sound of our faith makes the mountains move
Let's build Him a home with our praise
For nothing can hold back the Father's grace
Don't tell me what praise cannot do
The sound of our faith makes the mountains move
Let's build Him a home with our praise
For nothing can hold back the Father's grace
Don't you tell me what faith cannot do
It's time to believe again
Don't tell me what praise cannot do
It's time to sing again, sing again
Don't tell me what praise cannot do
It's time to live again, worship again
Don't tell me what praise cannot do
It's time to go to church again, oh-woah
Don't tell me what praise cannot do
The sound of our faith makes the mountains move
Let's build Him a home with our praise
For nothing can hold back the Father's grace
So I'm not waiting till the morning
I will worship You right now
(Made up my mind)
I'm not waiting till the morning
I will worship You right now
I'm not waiting till the morning
I will worship You right now
