| Casting Crowns – Voice Of Truth Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
For me when I hear this song, it's about overcoming anxiety, hesitation, and worry, and taking hope in the Truth that God is much more powerful than our defaults and that with Him we are invincible. We are invincible because the life we live is for Jesus, and He will allow us to overcome anything that comes in our way. The first verse deals with the anxiety of Peter, one of Jesus' 12 disciples, when he was stepping out of the boat during the storm to where Jesus was. The second verse is the story of David and Goliath. I have no clue what the "soar with the wings of eagles" refer to, but I like it. Reminds me of that Greek (Roman?) mythology about the person who makes his own wings but ends up getting too close to the sun and having his wings melt. Except, in this song, the ending is positive. It also reminds me of the verse in Isaiah 40 when it says "They that hope in the LORD will renew their strength, they will soar on wings like eagles, they will run and not grow tired, they will walk and not be faint." |
