[Verse 1]
Pure, this must be, it has to be
Pure, let's make this pure
(Do you mean it?) Yes, I do
(Then let's sing it) Certainly, but
[Verse 2]
First, bare your hearts and cleanse your souls
(And then?) Let's try and, let's try and, let's try and
Let's make this precious, like this
Let's make this precious
[Verse 3]
We're striving, we're striving, we're striving, striving over here
(Ever nearer?) I think so
(Vision's clearer) Of course, of course
[Verse 4]
But still, we must forsake all to win
(All temptation?) Everything
(Our salvation) Now you're talking
[Verse 5]
Then let this apply to all we do
(And then?) Our striving will guide us
But somehow, I think that we'll win
[Verse 6]
Let's make this precious
[Verse 7]
First, let's hear somebody sing me a record
That cries pure and true (Like these, so)
And no, not those guitars, they're to noisy and crude (Sing it true)
The kind that convinces, refuses to leave
[Verse 8]
And I'm gonna turn it up
Something's pure, I feel it from here
Tell him he does better voices, thank you very much
Thank you, but no thanks, I've got enough on my own
[Verse 9]
This must be, this must be
I don't know, I don't know what
[Verse 10]
Let's make this precious (I think we probably will)
Let's make this precious (I think we probably will)
Let's make this precious (I think we probably will)
Let's make this precious (I think we probably will)
