We stand on the stage
hands raised to the sky
you're looking to us
but i don't know why
Chorus:
you scream
but do you really see
the people on the stage
you think we're all the rage
but we're not
our next song might flop
we're people like you
no bigger than anyone
why do you glorify us
Glorify the Son
Chorus
He is the only one
who deserves your noise
who deserves this love
so raise up your voice
chorus
Gospel?
If so, I think the second verse needs a rehash to make it less "we're not worthy"; and I have my doubts about "noise" in the last verse, but can't think of anything better right now.
If not, then I've missed the point completely.

"I have my doubts about "noise" in the last verse, but can't think of anything better right now"
- maybe something like "rejoice" to keep the rhyme with "voice"
- anyways, nice job!!!
no gospel, Christian Rock ;) there's a difference!
ok, second verse needs work. . .
how about
Just because we stand on stage
does not mean we are the One
why do you glorify us
Glorify the Son
Chorus
He is the only one
we want to rejoice
who deserves this love
so raise up your voice
that any better? i'm struggling on getting the second verse changed. . .
Hi Rue
How about something like this for the 2nd verse
We're people like you
Not the chosen one
Don't glorify us
Glorify the son

I liked the second version better.
I would change "Glorify the Son" to "Glorify the One".
Sounds better to me, and is a bit more powerful.
I know its been a while since anyone replied to this, but I just saw it and thought I would give my 2 cents....
I definately like glorify the "Son" better!
And going back to the line...
He is the only one
who deserves your noise
I really like that line.
Psalm 100:1 says "Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the lands."
Psalm 98:4-6 says. Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth; make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.
Just my thought on it, but your audience will relate to the imagery of noice. Plus I think it's cooler than We want to rejoice line. Not that that's not good too..
Just a thought...
Keep up the good writing!
