[VERSE 1:]
Traveling this journey through life I experienced the thrill �?? of victory
Sometimes the path that I traveled has taken a curve that led to defeat
But while I was walking the tedious journey
There were two things that kept - my sanity
My prayer and my praise - My praise and my prayer [2Xs]
I thank God for praise and I thank God for prayer
That�??s what sustained me [3Xs]
Yes that�??s how I made it �?? through the difficult seasons
Between here and there
[VERSE 2:]
There will be days in your life
When it seems like the storm cloud -- is following you
Then there�??ll be days when it seems like God�??s favor is shinning
on everything you do
You will have ups and downs on life�??s journey
There are two things that will keep your sanity
Your prayer and your praise - Your praise and your prayer [2Xs]
I thank God for praise and I thank God for prayer
That�??s how I made it �?? through the difficult seasons
Between here and there
[CHORUS:]
Between here and there
Between here and there
[Leader:] A whole lot of things came to test me
[Choir:] Thank God, He kept me between here and there
Between my mountain top - experiences
And my valleys of dark - despair
I thank God for praise and I thank God for prayer
That�??s how I made it �?? through the difficult seasons
[VAMP:]
Between here - and - there [repeat while leader adlibs]
Jesus right there - Carrying me �?? Right there [REPEAT]
Between my mountain top - experiences
And my valleys of dark - despair
I thank God for praise and I thank God for prayer
That�??s how I made it �?? through the difficult seasons
[PARTS:] Between here and there
