HANDS UP (Southern Gospel)

HANDS UP

High top tent and we’re there for revival
Born again Christians with their well worn bibles
Shout it out, let ‘em know where you stand
Things will getta hopin’ with a 5 piece band
Halleluiah ----Hands up!

Feel the spirit of the faithful as they funnel in
Musicians warming up, can’t wait ‘til they begin
Temperature rising to a firery pitch
Everybody dealin’ with a religious itch
Halleluiah ----Hands up!

Hands up! give praise to the Lord
Hands up! Let ‘em know where you are
Hands up! Reachin’ up to the sky
Hands up! Raise ‘em up real high
Your time is due, let his spirit inside you

Excitement really rising as the night goes on
Spirit talkin’ to the mass’s, singin a song
Raising up the tempo to a spiritual high
You can’t stand still, even if you try
Halleluiah ----Hands up!

Hands up! give praise to the Lord
Hands up! Let ‘em know where you are
Hands up! Reachin’ up to the sky
Hands up! Raise ‘em up real high
Your time is due, let his spirit inside you

Hands up! give praise to the Lord
Hands up! Let ‘em know where you are
Hands up! Reachin’ up to the sky
Hands up! Raise ‘em up real high
Your time is due, let his spirit inside you

Hands up! Hands up! Hands up! Hands up!
Your time is due, let his spirit inside you
