Is Your Life A Mess?
by Barbara Philbrook

Is your life a mess, nothing ever goes right?
Then raise your hands and praise God with delight.

The worse things appear to be for you,
the more praising and rejoicing you should do.

When the world is turned upside down and all is going wrong,
this is the time to raise your voice in song.

This is an assurance that you are living in God's will.
Satan wants to upset you it would give him a thrill.

If he can make you think God is displeased in any way,
it will certainly help to make his day.

Everything good and perfect is from God above,
provided to us due to His great love.

When bad things are happening it is Satan you can bet.
He's trying to get you worried and upset.

Trust in the word God gave to see us through.
Know that all bad is caused by Satan trying to disturb you.

Sing praises during the bad as well as the good,
it will drive Satan crazy just as it should.

It's easy to sing praises when all is going well.
It's when we praise God during trials that our true love He can tell.

Is your life a mess and causing you dismay?
Sing praises to God, He'll send those blues away.
