Let’s Make This Precious

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

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

We're striving, we're striving, we're striving

Striving over here

(Ever nearer?) I think so

(Visions clearer) Of course, of course

But still, we must forsake all to win

(All temptation?) Everything

(For salvation?) Now you're talking

Then let this apply to all we do

(And then?) Our striving will guide us

And somehow, I think that we'll win

Let's make this precious

First, let's hear somebody sing me a record

That cries pure and true

No, not those guitars, they're too noisy and crude (Sing it)

The kind that convinces, refuses to leave

There's no need to turn it up

If it's pure, I'll feel it from here

I don't need those bad influences, thank you very much

Thank you, but no thanks, I get enough on my own

This must be, this must be

I don't know, I don't know

Let's make this precious (I think we probably will)
