The people who survive the sword will find favor in the desert.
Surviving the sword was God showing grace after being rejected. The favor found in the desert was rest.
I will build you up again and you will be rebuilt.
Along with rest was healing.
I am the painter making this mess a masterpiece.
This mess is really left up as an exercise to the reader. For myself the mess is my own unbelief, doubt, and pain that are all I have left.
I will rebuild you up again.
These lyrics are a promise that life will be given again.
