10 Or 40 Lyrics
Woo I am the first to comment on this awesome song!!! This is such a pretty song......I love it!!!! :)
To me,
Most people have some sort of car they drive in and praise God while they're doing it. If you're in school, it's college life. If you're working, it's your job. If you're in a band, it's that. To me this song is about following God and knowing that I should always take his lead whether or not the job works out, the homework gets done, or the crowd approves.
Being ready to kick the window, walk through over the dashboard and get on after the failure.
The imagery with the feet getting cold is awesome and is a humble picture of how unsettling the uncertainties of life can be.
I absolutely love this song. To me, it's one of those that reminds you of when you first heard it.
Everything is so symbolic. The car is like our journey through life.
It's best interpreted through your own meaning. That way it hits home and sings directly to you.
i'm still trying to figure out what the "10" and "40" stand for
im thinking 10 or 40 might mean how much gas he buys $10 or $40 i dont know if thats how much it use to cost back when this was written but its kinda like do u wanna go a corder of the way or all of the way. how long do you wanna sing to God? all the time or just 1/4 of the time? like do you wanna worship with your whole life or just some of it? some times i just buy gas to drive around and listen to sweet worship music like cool hand luke and sing for hours.... just what i think the title means
When Mark was younger, he and his brother asked a neighbor how fast his go-kart could go, and the kid answered, "It can go 10 or 40." It also refers to the 10-40 window evangelicals talk about.
