Walter Hawkins And The Hawkins Family - What Is This? Lyrics

[Walter (background):]
What is this
that I feel deep inside
and it keeps setting my soul on fire (whatever it is)
whatever it is (whatever it is)
whatever it is (whatever it is)
whatever it is (it won't let me)
hold my peace (hold my peace)

(what is this)
makes folk say I'm acting strange (what is this)
makes me wanna run on Jesus' name (whatever it is)
whatever it is (whatever it is)
whatever it is (whatever it is)
whatever it is (it won't let me)
hold my peace (hold my peace)

[Walter:]
I said it makes me love all my enemies

[Lynette:]
And it makes me love my friends

[Tramaine (Lynette):]
And it won't let me be ashamed (let me be ashamed)
to tell the world that I've been born again

Ahhh what is this

[Walter (background):]
makes me do right when I would do wrong (what is this)
when I'm down low He gives me a song (whatever it is)
whatever it is (whatever it is)
whatever it is (whatever it is)
whatever it is (it won't let me)
hold my peace (hold my peace)

[Walter:]
I said it makes me love all my enemies, yes it does

[Lynette:]
and it makes me love my friends

[Tramaine (Walter):]
and it won't let me be ashamed (let me be ashamed)
to tell the world that I've been born again

Ahhh what is this

[Walter (background):]
Oh Lord
makes me do right when I would do wrong (what is this)
when I'm down low He gives me a song (whatever it is)
whatever it is (whatever it is)
whatever it is (whatever it is)
whatever it is (it won't let me)
it won't let me hold my peace (hold my peace)

No no (whatever it is)
this feeling I have (whatever it is)
deep down inside of me (whatever it is)
whatever it is (it won't let me)
I just can't hold my peace (hold my peace, whatever it is)
I'm so glad about it (whatever it is)
I wanna shout about it (whatever it is)
whatever it is (it won't let me)
I just can't hold my peace (hold my peace)
no no no (whatever it is)
whatever it is (whatever it is)
whatever it is (whatever it is)
whatever it is (it won't let me)
it won't let me (hold)
hold naw, hold my my my peace (hold my peace)
ooh (whatever it is)
I wanna shout about (whatever it is)
I'm so glad about it (whatever it is)
whatever it is (it won't let me)
I just can't hold my peace (hold my peace)
this feeling I have (whatever it is)
deep down inside of me (whatever it is)
whatever it is (it won't let me)
it won't let me
(hold hold my peace)
