Analysis of One Head
Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)
All judgment is left in your hands
Because you are the Son of Man
Another name for who? I AM
Oh yes you are the Son of Man
And I’ve become your biggest fan
I worship you because I can
When I look at your perfect plan
I pray before you I will stand
Now I’ve become part of your clan
Because I have been born again
I will not build on shifting sand
You are the Rock; you’re my I AM
