Live Out Loud Lyrics

Artist : STEVEN CURTIS CHAPMAN
Album : Declaration
Imagine this
I get a phone call from Regis - he says, "Do you want to be a millionaire?"
The put me on a show and I win with two lifelines to spare
Picture this
I act like nothing ever happened and bury all the money in a coffee can
Well I've been given more than Regis ever gave away
I was a dead man who was called to come out of my grave
I think it's time for makin' some noise

Wake the neighbors
Get the word out
Come on, crank up the music, climb a mountain and shout
This is life we've been given, made to be lived out
So la, la, la, la, live out loud

Think about this
Try to keep a bird from singing after it's soared up in the sky
Give the sun a cloudless day and tell it not to shine
Think about this
If we really have been given the gift of life that never ends
And if we have been filled with living hope, we're gonna overflow
And if God's love is burning in our hearts, we're gonna glow
There's just no way to keep it in

Wake the neighbors
Get the word out
Come on, crank up the music, climb a mountain and shout
This is life we've been given, made to be lived out
So la, la, la, la, live out loud

Live out loud
Everybody
La, la, la.... la, la, la-la,.... la, la, la, live out loud
I wanna hear everybody sing
La, la, la.... la, la, la-la,.... la, la, la, live out loud


Every corner of creation is a living declaration
Come join the song we were made to sing

Wake the neighbors
Get the word out
Come on, crank up the music, climb a mountain and shout
This is life we've been given, made to be lived out
So la, la, la, la, live out loud
