I Am They's song 'Praise' is a declaration of intentional worship regardless of circumstances. The lyrics emphasize praising God in every season—whether in valleys or on mountaintops, in certainty or doubt. The song portrays praise as a spiritual weapon that overcomes enemies and brings down walls, referencing the biblical story of Jericho. It affirms God's sovereignty, faithfulness, and victory over the grave. The repeated call to 'Praise the Lord, oh my soul' echoes Psalm 103, urging believers to worship God with their whole being, not just when they feel like it, but as a constant response to His greatness.

I'll praise in the valley
Praise on the mountain
I'll praise when I'm sure
Praise when I'm doubting
I'll praise when outnumbered
Praise when surrounded
'Cause praise is the water
My enemies drown in
As long as I'm breathing
I've got a reason to
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul
I'll praise when I feel it
And I'll praise when I don't
I'll praise 'cause I know
You're still in control
My praise is a weapon
It's more than a sound
More than a sound
My praise is the shout
That brings Jericho down
Oh, as long as I'm breathing
I've got a reason to
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul
I won't be quiet
My God is alive
How could I keep it inside?
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul
I'll praise 'cause You're sovereign
Praise 'cause You reign
Praise 'cause You rose and defeated the grave
I'll praise 'cause You're faithful
Praise 'cause You're true
Praise 'cause there's nobody greater than You
I'll praise 'cause You're sovereign
Praise 'cause You reign
Praise 'cause You rose and defeated the grave
I'll praise 'cause You're faithful
Praise 'cause You're true
Praise 'cause there's nobody greater than You
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul
I won't be quiet
My God is alive
How could I keep it inside?
Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul
