Weapons Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Guitarearl 

Cover art for Weapons lyrics by Jars of Clay

A song about the release that salvation should bring, and the peacemaking ideal that should follow. The world conditions us to be vengeful, callous people. When we realize that we've been saved, we need to realize that our own position in this world doesn't matter anymore. The battles we've fought for a better job, more money, respect, worldly love, and other selfish ploys...those battles aren't important anymore. What's important is that you approach situations with love, as Christ did at the cross. Don't think the worst of a situation, find the positive.
