Magnificent Sanctuary Band Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There are multitudes of people crying
Because they just won't try to understand
From the book I read, not one but all must follow him
Come and join the magnificent sanctuary band

[Verse 2]
There are multitudes of people dying
Seems like temptation rules over the land
You know those people should just remember his commands
Come and join the magnificent sanctuary band

[Chorus]
Singing in the band, talking to the man
Bringing in the sheep all over the world as fast as he can
Singing in the band, talking to the man
Drop everything you're doing and join the sanctuary band

[Verse 3]
The Son of Man speaks of Revelation
Oh, he's reaching, reaching out his hand
Here's promised to bring us all salvation
Come and join the magnificent sanctuary band

[Chorus]
Singing in the band, talking to the man
Bringing in the sheep all over the world as fast as he can
Singing in the band, talking to the man
Drop everything you're doing and join the sanctuary band
Singing in the band, talking to the man
Bringing in the sheep all over the world as fast as he can
I'm singing, hey
Drop everything you're doing and join the sanctuary band

[Bridge]
You better come on
You better come on
Bringing in the sheep all over the world as fast as he can
You better hurry
You better make haste
Drop everything you're doing and join the sanctuary band
Right now
Singing in the band, talking to the man
Bringing in the sheep all over the world as fast as he can

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
