Many biblical allusions in this song. Here's a few: "Get washed in the water" is an appeal to the new life found in baptism. "Feel your light pour out" is the subsequent illumination of God's Holy Spirt. "Blue 'n' bruised 'n' sore" seems to be linking our suffering to Christ's on the cross. And the redemption found "On the other shore" is a heavenly one.

Life is hard. Faith is simple.
