Analysis of A Party
Nancy McDonald 1968 (Blytheville, Arkansas)
There's a party being planned
Only royalty allowed
You must be a follower of Jesus
And be apart of that crowd
Come as you are
No special dress attire
You will definitely get drunk
From the Holy Ghost and Fire
You will for sure get a buzz
And undeniable high
As God's Holy Spirit washes over you
As He circles on by
So plan on staying late
For the party never ends
There will be lots of celebration
For you and your friends
