Analysis of APPLAUSE FROM THE WORLD



APPLAUSE FROM THE WORLD

Let us praise from earth’s centre to God’s majestic heavenly planes
From deep down-under the oceans, where there’s no more names.
From a humble swallow’s nest where the clay is still frail
Let us applause life, a reality fairytale.

Voices must flow like water reflecting as crystals in a magical pond
An overflowing fountain of joy, here, out there and beyond.
Now hold your voices and hold your breath,-                                                              honouring the triumphant tale of Jesus, in life and in death.
Togetherness will create an awesome spiritual display
Surrender to greatness for millions of hearts to sweetly obey.
No illusions and no matter what anyone in the world may say
The Lord’s spirit conquers, forever and a day.

Let us start a season for all, a time to stand tall
A new beginning for humanity, like a morning call.
Now raise your hands with a humble mind..…
 Whilst sharing the tide of ecstasy, with love and kind.
