Stripped of power
Valiantstar 1961 (Sydney)
I've worked out the system it's taken an hour.
How the people have been robbed, and stripped of their power..
The whole system geared to strike!
At the power of the word, its beauty, and might.
To take the glory..
Man, were they wrong.
As the world succeeds to crash and burn fanning fires with righteous cause..
The word of God endures forever...
Let's see who's clever.
