DOTTIE PEOPLES - Closet Religion lyrics

I don't have a closet religion

I can't hide the God I serve

I got to let the world know

Where ever I go

I got to praise and serve the Lord

Oooh serve the Lord

[Repeat]

[Verse 1]

King Darius, made a decree

there won't be no praying around here,

whosoever call on any God's name

will be cast into the lion's den

Daniel didn't pay the king no attention

Three times a day he prayed to God anyway

When confronted with the consequences of the lion's den

I can hear old Daniel say

[REPEAT CHORUS]

[Verse 2]

All night, Daniel stayed in the lion's den

In the morning, to the king's surprise

God sent his Angels, to shut the lion's jaw

And Daniel was still alive

Daniel used the lions for a mattress and a pillow

And the Angels rocked Daniel to sleep

When he got up, Daniel let, everybody know

I'm not ashamed of the God I serve.

How many of you can say I don't...

[REPEAT CHORUS]

I don't (I don't have a closet religion)

I don't (I don't have a closet religion)

I'm not ashamed of the God I serve (I don't have a closet religion)

Ask the Hebrew boys, (I don't have a closet religion)

They'll tell you they're not ashamed (I don't have a closet religion)

How many of you are not ashamed (I don't have a closet religion)

Of the God you serve (I don't have a closet religion)

I don't (I don't have a closet religion)

I don't (I don't have a closet religion)

I don't (I don't have a closet religion)

Have a closet religion (I don't have a closet religion)

I'm not ashamed of God (I don't have a closet religion)

I'll tell the world (I don't have a closet religion)

I don't (I don't)-REPEAT 15 TIMES

I got to let the world know

where ever (where ever I go)

I gotta praise (I got to praise him)

I've got to praise him ( I got to praise him)

I've got to praise him ( I got to praise him)

And serve the (Serve the)

(Ooo Serve the)

The Lord (Lord)
