	Story Behind the Song Our band was invited to participate in an all faiths get together. Since the directors did not want to offend anyone, we were asked to not sing about Christ even though we were a christian band. We had a solution. Lyrics I'll never forget the day they all came to play Every church around and the synagogues There were pastors, preachers, and new age teachers There were rabbis and holy men of God You see this was meant to be a unified assembly Where everyone would come together in one accord As long as we didn't offend they didn't wish to condescend They said to sing our songs but don't sing about the Lord They said you can sing about love About the stars above You can sing the praises of mighty men of war You can sing about a higher power or about your darkest hour But whatever you do don't sing about the Lord Well we found that kind of strange not to be able to mention his name How could we praise the Lord without singing of Jesus So we came up with a plan brand new We could sing our songs in Hebrew And still glorify our Lord and King of Kings There's only one thing I can say About the lesson we learned that day And the way we pulled off our own little surprise If you're seeking not to offend or this gospel comprehend You can't hide Jesus, no you can't compromise Now we're singing about love About the Lord above We're singing the praises of that mighty man of war We're singing about a higher power every day and every hour And whatever we do we're singing about the Lord Yes, whatever we do we're singing about the Lord Now we're singing about love About the Lord above We're singing the praises of that mighty man of war We're singing about a higher power every day and every hour And whatever we do we're singing about the Lord Yes, whatever we do we're singing about the Lord
