Analysis of Glorified
Valiantstar 1961 (Sydney)
Glorify your name Lord,
Glorify your name.
Don't let me live in shame, Lord,
Don't let me live in shame.
Keep us in the game, Lord,.
Keep us in the game.
Give it to us plain, Lord,
Give it to us plain.
The world's going insane, Lord,
The world's going insane.
Let your voice be heard, Lord,
Let your voice be heard.
Foolish and absurd, Lord,
Foolish, and absurd...
Let all vanity be swept away as dust.
Only in your word,
Now, can we trust.
You can be our teacher;
The blind lead the blind..
If you believe
You can see
The scales fall from your eyes.
