Sanctify Yourself - Lyrics by Simple Minds


Lyrics
Is this the age of the thunder and rage
Can you feel the ground move 'round your feet?
If you take one step closerit'll lead to another
The crossroad above is where we meet.I shout out for shelter
I need you for something
The whole world is outthey're all on the street.
Control yourself - love is all you needcontrol yourself - in your eyes.
Sanctify yourselfsanctifybe apart of mesanctify
Sanctify yourselfsanctifysanctify yourselfset yourself free.
In pictures of livingin bloodshot a vision
Sweet miracles and strange circumstances.I see the sun-upthe showdownthe cool winds that blow down
On the big beat that life long romance is.
You've got a gun in your handyou're making self plans
Stay with me all through the night.
Control yourself - love is all you needcontrol yourself - open up your heart.
Sanctify yourselfsanctifybe apart of mesanctify. . .
You can't stop the world for a boy or a girl
Sweet victims of poor circumstances.
But you can pour back the lovesweeping down from above
Giving hope and making more chances.
Well
I hope and I pray that - maybe someday -
You'll come back down here and show me the way.
Control yourself - love is all you needcontrol yourself - open up your heart.
