Roxy Music - Psalm

Try on your love
Like a new dress
The fit and the cut
Your friends to impress
Try on your smile -
Square on your face

Showing affection
Should be no disgrace
Try out your God
Hope He will send
Kindness from strangers
On whom you depend

Try on His coat
A mantle most fine
Myriad colours
His harmony-thine
'Believe in me'
Once seemed a good line
Now belief in Jesus
Is faith more sublime
Head in the clouds
But I can't see the Lord
Short of perfection
I'll try to be good
I'll stand at His gate

I'll wait for His sign
Then I'll walk in His garden
When it's my time
Drink from His cup
Hush now don't you cry
His quiet waters

Will never run dry
Nearing death's vale
He's here by my side
He leads me to paradise
A mountain so high

Don't be afraid
Just treasure His word
Singing His praises
I know I'll be heard
He's gonna take you by the hand

He's gonna make you feel good
Open up your eyes
And then you'll see all that you should
Forget all your troubles

You will feel no pain
He's all that you need
He's your everything
When I'm feeling all at sea
And deliverance is that distant shore
I will not be worried

Someday His house will be my home
For everymore
Try on your love
Like a new dress
The fit and the cut
Your friends to impress
Try on your smile -
Square on your face

Showing affection
Should be no disgrace
Try out your God
Hope He will send
Kindness from strangers
On whom you depend

Try on His coat
A mantle most fine
Myriad colours
His harmony-thine
'Believe in me'
Once seemed a good line
Now belief in Jesus
Is faith more sublime
Head in the clouds
But I can't see the Lord
Short of perfection
I'll try to be good
I'll stand at His gate

I'll wait for His sign
Then I'll walk in His garden
When it's my time
Drink from His cup
Hush now don't you cry
His quiet waters

Will never run dry
Nearing death's vale
He's here by my side
He leads me to paradise
A mountain so high

Don't be afraid
Just treasure His word
Singing His praises
I know I'll be heard
He's gonna take you by the hand

He's gonna make you feel good
Open up your eyes
And then you'll see all that you should
Forget all your troubles

You will feel no pain
He's all that you need
He's your everything
When I'm feeling all at sea
And deliverance is that distant shore
I will not be worried

Someday His house will be my home
For everymore
