2. Do You Ever Lose Your Praise?
“I Never Lost My Praise – Tremaine Hawkins
“I’ve lost some good friends along life’s way, some loved ones departed in heaven to stay, But thank God I didn’t lose everything. I’ve lost faith in people who said they cared, in time of my crisis they were never there, But in my disappointment, in my season of pain, One thing never wavered, one thing never changed…

3. I never lost my hope, I never lost my joy, I never lost my faith, But most of all, I never lost my praise!
