Gotta Keep Movin' |
The song simply says praise God for who He is in your life...
For all that You have done, You deserve my praise.
Victories You have won, You deserve my praise.
Because I am free, You deserve my praise.
For blessing me Lord, You deserve my praise.
When I think of the goodness of Jesus and all He has done. My soul cries hallelujah! Lord You are the one that deserves my praise. For protecting me, You deserve my praise, for watching over me Lord, You deserve my praise. For Healing my body, You deserve my praise, for keeping me Lord, You deserve my praise.

interview with Clayton Perry, he told Tamela Mann...
I still get goose bumps whenever I think about the time I saw you perform "You Deserve My Praise" during John P. Kee's benefit concert a few years back. Even though I was a fan of the studio recording, Lord knows that the Spirit nearly knocked me off my feet during your live set. What's the back story behind that particular song? Did Demarcus Williams approach you with that song?
Oh, Demarcus is such a wonderful talent! With that song I asked did he have anything and so he submitted that song and another song. When I first heard it, it was just a little rough draft with the music, so you can remember what it is (like the lyrics and the harmonies). My husband David Mann and the album producer, Myron Butler, heard it, and they were like "I don't know?" But I was like "Y'all! You have to hear beyond what's here right now."
And it has really become one of my favorite songs. I just fell in love with it and I asked Demarcus if I could tweak it and make a few changes. And he was like "Sure, sure!" It's really one of my favorite songs, because the lyrics really taught me, that God deserves the praise, you know...No matter what, He protects us, in all things, from seen dangers to unseen and He keeps us in the midst of the good and the bad, even when we just want to do whatever we want to do and think it's right.
For God, you know, He still covers us in some many different areas of where our parents and grandparents pray for you. Even other people pray for you and you're not even knowing it, how God still gets the praise. He deserves the praise and we should give it to Him, because of who He is. And that's just kind of how the song came about.
Now before you watch this video below, I just want to warn you, she is about to act a fool. Not in a bad way, but she is giving God her all right at that very moment. However, I do promise it will bless you. She definitely gives God the praise He deserves...
