Take Time To Praise By Hal Wickliffe Copyright 2000 Hal Wickliffe

Song lyrics to an updated version of an old World War II tune.

Instead of showing so much hate, wouldn't it be nice if more Americans simply took time to praise, particularly praising God for the many blessings they richly enjoy in our nation. Below, therefore, are new words of an old song from World War 11, "Praise The Lord And Pass The Ammunition," as our brave servicemen battled to keep this country free. And I dedicate these new lyrics to all those who seek to stay healthy and live longer by eating the right food ... food that originally came from God's green earth.   Praise the Lord And practice good nutrition! Praise the Lord I take this strong position! Praise the Lord And Stay with good nutrition When It's all salt-free!   Praise the Lord And practice good nutrition! Praise the Lord Whatever your condition! Praise the Lord And stay with good nutrition If it's all fat-free!   Praise the Lord And practice good nutrition! Praise the Lord There's never no suspicion! Praise the Lord And stay with good nutrition To age so gracefully!
