The word that can save our soul or damn us to hell, the word that was before the world began, the word that came to earth as a man, the word by which all men will bow regardless of whether they believe, is JESUS.
Such a powerful song. Stand and feel your worth = feel the power and the pride you have knowing your soul is saved by faith in Jesus. Many of Thrice's songs are purposely vague, allowing for different meanings to different people. But much as Hold Fast Hope tells of the prophet Jonah, the Messenger tells of the prophet Isaiah, and Words in the Water tells of the two covenants of God - this song can't have multiple meanings.
Wield a second birth = a soul born again via salvation in Jesus Christ.
Wrap our knees in earth, wrap ourselves in light = We will die and be buried in the earth, but because of the "word" (Jesus) - he has bridged the gap between man and God (light - God is referenced as a blinding light)
Powerful, powerful lyrics. We will burn, but not burn up. The burn comes from within, as we burn for the "word" to do his will on earth. When we die we will not burn, as in the fires of hell, because by God's grace (awed by grace) he has given us the opportunity of a lifetime to simply humble ourselves and declare by spoken word Jesus is Lord (fall on my face and scream the word that can save us all)
Wed with wine and ghost = when Jesus left earth to enter back in Heaven, he left the Holy Ghost to continue his work. As the Holy Ghost lives within followers of Christ (not "Christians", which is a general term that has lost the power of its meaning - everyone says they're Christian nowadays), the Holy Ghost is the deposit left to us by God - guaranteeing our entrance in Heaven.
