I've walked with the kings and
I've marched to the pounding drums.
Then you came.
I've walked with the kings and
I've marched to the pounding drums.
Then you came.
You asked me to change
But like a fool
I refused and walked away
It's not like You would know, would You?
You were white as snow
Still You plead, still You plead guilty
They took my crown as I hung my head
And tied the noose around my neck
They tied me up and left me for dead
Please come, cut me loose
It's not like You would know, would You?
You were white as snow
Still You plead, still You plead guilty
It's not like You would know, would You?
You were white as snow
Still You plead, still You plead guilty
It's not like You would know, would You?
You were white as snow
You were white as snow
You were white as snow
I'm going to dissect the song with the lyrics pulled up. Doing this destroys the majesty of your own interpretation.

White As Snow- Haste the Day
White As Snow- Haste the Day
((I've walked with the kings and I've marched to the pounding drums
Then you came))

Then you came))
This is admitting guilt and shame of being caught in the act of sin and the Holy Spirit showing up in your heart in the midst of fooling around with Earthly things.

((You asked me to change but like a fool I refused
And walked away
Oh, oh))
This is obvious. Denying the Holy Spirit working on your heart.

This is my favorite part. He's trying so hard. Struggling to grasp Jesus actually being able to relate to us. It's such a ridiculous question because Jesus was perfect and still plead guilty to the sins of the world. We all owe every single sin of ours, charged to our Heavenly account, but Jesus took it on his. Just like a credit card. Debt. Racking up a bill we can't ever pay. And Jesus never spent a dime, but still takes on all of our credit card debt. And pays it back.
--GOD..It's not like you would know what it's like to turn away from something you care about!! I've personally, stupidly thought this so many times. God you don't understand how hard it is to sacrifice my life for you. O WAIT. YOU MADE THE BIGGEST SACRIFICE OF ALL
((They took my crown as I hung my head and tied the noose
Around my neck
They tied me up and left me for dead please, cut me loose))
This was the affects of turning from God. His sin, his shame, his lifestyle, they took his dignity and self-respect. So he lowers his head in shame awaiting the consequences of denying Christ's way of life.
Also, he's going to be killed by this sin if someone doesn't save him.
((It's not like you would know, would you?
You were white as snow
But still you plead, still you plead guilty))
The mere thought of this amazing love is what kills me in this song. The heavy riffs, and singing, everything pierces my heart with the beauty of God's love. We can't grasp it. That struggle is evident in this song.
The instrumental portion at the end is for reflection. It's my alter call to give up whatever I'm holding onto.
((It's not like you would know, would you?
You were white as snow
You were white as snow
