CHORUS
Primitive Rhythm Machine, it's the true, rhythm of
the natives, the holy rhythm, God creates, jungle beats
Evil, only perverts.
VERSE1
African tribes, L.A. gangs, Australian natives
Europeans, will know about
Salvation, the time has come to change your ways.
Throw your conceptions out, look to people not yourself.
High and mighty, that's not right. God created all things.
BRIDGE
That's all men.
That's all music.
That's everything.
CHORUS (repeat)
VERSE2
Glacial dwellers, South Americans, tribal people.
All men must know about.
Salvation, the time has come to change your ways
All this music will all pass, it's just part of this world.
God's music of all nations. All part of God's creation.
Repeat Bridge
Narrative - Psalm 150
:::::::::::::::::::::::::
Praise God in his sanctuary.
Praise him in the firmament of his power.
Praise him for his mighty acts.
Praise him according to his excellent greatness.
Praise him with the sound of the trumpet.
Praise him with psaltery and harp.
Praise him with the timbrel and dance.
Praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
Praise him upon the loud cymbals.
Praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord.
VERSE 3
Hard music, soft sounds, street beats.
Music crowds will know about.
Salvation, the time has come to change your ways.
Look beyond a culture style, yourself on what's right.
You must turn around, to know your creator.
BRIDGE (repeat)
Interlude - "Heavy, music, rhythm, God's way."
