1 Corinthians 1:27 - hence the song title One:Twenty Seven.

interesting.

i see it, in the light of that bible verse:

"...God chose the weak things of this world to shame the strong"

I think it's a call to Christians to be the people God called them to be. And not to be so ashamed of who we are and what we believe. Because shame cripples. It does indeed keep you:

"low and close to the bottom"

I also see a warning not to say you love God, unless you are bearing your cross. All those out there who are followers of Christ, understand this. And unfortunately I find myself in a posiiton of hypocrosy of not being man enough to do this at times. Yet as the song says:

"all that i am, is becasue Your love endures my back to it"

Christ endures our unfaithfulness. Our willingness to whore ourselves out to other god's and our flirtatious attitudes to sin.
