Gaither Vocal Band Lyrics
"Whole Lotta Shakin'"

There were Paul and Silas
stuck down in that jail
Their hands were chained
and their backs did bleed
Things weren't looking all that well

They lifted up their voices
Began to sing and pray
Then the building shook
and the doors swung wide
And the guards began to say....

Chorus:
There's a whole lotta shakin' going on,
There's a whole lotta shakin' going on,
Well their faith held out
and they gave a shout
There's a whole lotta shakin' going on ( shakin', a lotta shakin' )

Gideon and three hundred men
They faced a multitude
God sent them out with no swords or shields
but told them what to do

They broke the jars and let the light shine bright
then they gave a mighty shout
and the enemy, struck with fear and dread
wiped each-other out

Repeat chorus

Now you may not have a wall of stone
or an army to defeat
You may not be on your way to jail
with shackles on your feet

But I bet there's something in your life
that you'd like to change around
so lift up your voice
give a shout of faith
and see the Power of God come down

Repeat chorus
