Todd Rundgren – God Said Lyrics 16 years ago
It speaks to God's perspective on the nature of man to continually misinterpret Him... to hypocritically claim to speak for Him while serving ourselves which reveals an apparent actual non-belief that He is who we say He is. If we believed then we would actually serve Him by loving others and not ourselves. It contrasts the concepts of servant and slave and reveals the author's own double-mindedness about which one that he is. It suggests a works-based worship-for-reward mentality in the author. It speaks to a lack of faith that there will be reprecussions for misdeeds and pinpoints said lack of faith as being at the root of all evils done both in and apart from God's name. If not lack of faith then lack of reverence and sheer brazen stupidity. It also reveals that one who honestly seeks God has a better chance of finding Him but that they still may not fully appreciate nor honor what they have found. It reveals that God is no respecter of persons, that He abides where faith exists, that He will not force Himself or belief in Him on anyone, that He is not angry and that He is not our problem, we are our problem. It also reveals that listening in prayer is more important that talking. Selfless love is worship.
