Give thanks to the Lord for your body
It gives you a life in this world
It may not be what you wanted
But this body you live in is yours
And it acts on the words that you speak
It obeys your every command
Even when your orders are bad
Chorus
Speak life to your body always
Lift it up to the Lord in praise
For negative words bring a curse
They license the enemy
To prepare the body for death
And the power designed to bring health
It now begins to destroy
