Analysis of 3 days
I've taken twelve steps
Exactly 3 days
I'm removing specs
And cleansing my ways
Tear down my temple
Rebuild it in 3
It might look simple
It's not plain to see
Awake from my sleep
Away from my dreams
I pray when I'm weak
A break from the scenes
Some might need a week
I just need the Lord
When I pray, I seek
We're now on one accord
My temple is clean
Just thorns on my head
My Savior took three
He rose from the dead
