- Sanctify Yourself Lyrics / with translationsIs this the age of the thunder and rage
Can you feel the ground move 'round your feet?
If you take one step closer
it'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 out
they're all on the street.
Control yourself - love is all you need
control yourself - in your eyes.
Sanctify yourself
sanctify
be apart of me
sanctify
Sanctify yourself
sanctify
sanctify yourself
set yourself free.
In pictures of living
in bloodshot a vision
Sweet miracles and strange circumstances.
I see the sun-up
the showdown
the cool winds that blow down
On the big beat that life long romance is.
You've got a gun in your hand
you're making self plans
Stay with me all through the night.
Control yourself - love is all you need
control yourself - open up your heart.
Sanctify yourself
sanctify
be apart of me
sanctify
. . .
You can't stop the world for a boy or a girl
Sweet victims of poor circumstances.
But you can pour back the love
sweeping 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 need
control yourself - open up your heart.

The whole world is out

Control yourself - love is all you need
