I hung my head for the last time
in surrender, and despair
Before I'm dead I'll take the last climb
up the mountain, face my fears
the time has come to make a choice
use my Voice
for the love of every man
my mind's made up
Never again
Never again
will I turn around
though they may surround me
like lions and crush me on all sides
i may fall, but i will rise
not by my might, nor my power
or by the strength of souls
only through Your love, my Lord
all that's lost will be restored
take courage, sons,
for we must go under
a heart of darkness
to set them Free
but don't lose heart
when you see the numbers
there's no measure for the faith we bring
and it's given us to Overcome
if we run where the Spirit calls us on
the greatest things have yet to come
with the dawn, we will rise
though they may surround us like lions
and crush us on all sides,
we may fall, but we will rise
not by my might nor my power
or by the strength of souls
only through Your love, my Lord
all that's lost will be restored.

for me this song is about a man embarking on his soul journey. He's describing how he's climbing out of his despair and entering into a light of hope and purpose. God has put him on this journey and it is time to accept the mission despite all the adversity and darkness he will face. Josh's particular journey is to use his voice to spread God's love to all man. Idk for sure but when he says "dont lose hope when you see the numbers" he's talking about the same thing im seeing...the number 1 everywhere.
