Matthew 21: 21-22 Jesus replied, "I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and it will be done. 22If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer. Does anyone think it's a reasonable assumption that it's about someone dealing with something that he can't do anything about, so he desperately wants the faith to move their "mountain".. or he's straight out speaking it out of their life. eh? Just a guess. I'm just not sure what the last line means... |

Sounds good. I'm so excited for this CD, I preordered it within a couple days of it being available. Every one of ACB's album have been phenomenal. They've even changed their sound for each album, that's quite a thing to do (Iguess more so between SILYAYD and CNS. |

Haha I've listened to it with headphones in and just the speakers and everything, but I can't tell which one. But hey I guess both ways make sense. Just "Somehow your blood makes you blind" doesn't make sense by itself If you put "To our divide" after it, then it works. And "I am all Yours" is fine by itself but hey I guess it's true, only Cody knows lol |

playitloud I don't think there's necessarily a resolution in this song (I think it comes later on in the album) I think the verse "but i've grown not to mind because at least stone doesn't sling like blood or spill like guts across the floor where the bloodsuckers want more and more and more " maybe is talking about being numb and that having a "stone" heart is the easy way out... because when you're truly following Christ and rejecting sin, life isn't necessarily easy "stone <- staying in sin and not changing doesn't sling like blood or spill like guts across the floor" <-difficult/real life of following Christ I open to being completely wrong, but that's my spin on it Anyway this is an amazing song about how Grace can change even the hardest of hears |

^^^^^^^ oops hit enter too soon I think he was referring to this verse in the last line of the song Where he doubts the existence of God because he doesn't see Him anywhere and feels rejected |

"So I hear there's a whole world out there But I've grown to love this bed too much to leave it If love really drives out fear Then I pray it's her voice I've been hearing outside my door" 1 John 4:18 18There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. He's referring to this verse I believe Basically he is in love with his sin so much that he doesn't want to leave it, and is perhaps scared of being honest, or scared of trusting God completely. "One more time, love, won't you come remind me I'm someone believed in I'm someone still within your reach Cause all I've got is sleep Against my fear of being swept away By the wind, the undertow, and thought" He's asking love (ie God) to show him that there's still hope and grace for him, cause he's afraid of where he is and how he's consumed in sin "Awake! awake in the company of men given something to say Give me a servant's heart and a tongue to obey" Obeying God "Tired head, take up your mat Take your mat and walk" Luke 20 20When Jesus saw their faith, he said, "Friend, your sins are forgiven." 21The Pharisees and the teachers of the law began thinking to themselves, "Who is this fellow who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?" 22Jesus knew what they were thinking and asked, "Why are you thinking these things in your hearts? 23Which is easier: to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Get up and walk'? 24But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins...." He said to the paralyzed man, "I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home." 25Immediately he stood up in front of them, took what he had been lying on and went home praising God. (read the full story here http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=luke%205;&version=31;) So "Tired head, take up your mat Take your mat and walk" could refer to him having his sins forgiven |

I think the last verse "Leave your bad limbs behind For they are conduits to the heart" Is referring to Matthew 5:29 "If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell" Which is also mentioned at the start of "New Sun" |

I think this song might be about Christians not being transparent with who they really are/what they're dealing with "forget about being honest forget about being passionate wear that smile like you feel it even when you don't" I think it may also have something to do with people trying to earn their forgiveness and think you need to have everything worked out before you can go to God. "i think they forgot about Jesus seeking us out in the bodies we're still in the bodies we still war" I have a recording of the album release show and he adds in the song (please correct me anyone if you have a recording) "come on grace be the wind cause I don't deserve it, you don't deserve it" I think the main point of the song is that you can't attain forgiveness by your own efforts and that you just need to accept grace "we're all sinking for our sins unless grace be the wind" |

I think this makes more sense "Somehow your blood makes you blind To our DIVIDE I am all Yours" Basically by Jesus dying for us, it doesn't matter how undeserving we are, we can accept forgiveness. The gist of it is that Jesus' blood makes a "bridge" to God Also there's a spelling mistake "I've been looking for a new CHORUS" This song is absolutely amazing. I was so happy when they put it on their myspace. I also pre-ordered their new album... but I'm not sure if this song is on it. |
