Bow Down
Unyielding Faith: Defying Darkness with 7eventh Time Down
Lyrics
The pressure is building
The pressure is increasing, suggesting a challenging or difficult situation.
The levee is breaking
The metaphorical levee is breaking, indicating a sense of impending crisis or breakdown.
The vultures are circling on every side
Vultures circling symbolize impending danger or trouble from various directions.
The giants are calling
The giants calling may represent formidable challenges or obstacles.
And my fear is haunting
Fear is persistently present and troubling.
The liar is looking me right the eyes
The liar looking in the eyes suggests deception or falsehood confronting the speaker.
Oh but I know that I'm not alone in this fight
The speaker acknowledges not being alone in the struggle, finding strength in unity.
No...
Emphasizes the speaker's refusal to succumb to challenges or pressures.
I'm not gonna bow down
Declares the speaker's determination not to yield or submit.
To the idols of this world
Rejecting allegiance to worldly distractions or false gods.
I'm not gonna sell out
Commitment to stay true to principles, even in difficult circumstances.
Even when it feels like
Despite challenging times, the speaker won't compromise their beliefs.
all my hope is gone
In moments of despair, the speaker remains resilient.
I will March right through the valley
Willingness to confront and move through difficult situations.
Though the enemy surrounds me
Despite being surrounded, the speaker won't give in.
I'm not gonna bow down
Reiteration of the refusal to bow down to external pressures.
His promise is greater
Belief in the greatness of God's promises.
His army is stronger
Confidence in the strength of God's army or support.
And His hand will pull me from the darkest grave
Trust that God's intervention can bring the speaker out of the darkest situations.
So I choose to trust in
The speaker chooses to place trust in God's sovereignty.
The God who is Sovereign
Expectation that God will provide deliverance and guidance.
He will deliver me and light the way
Confidence that God will illuminate the path ahead.
What could stand against me
A rhetorical question emphasizing the invincibility of God's support.
What could stand against me
Repetition for emphasis on the unstoppable nature of God's assistance.
What could stand against me
Continued emphasis on the insurmountable nature of God's backing.
No I'm not gonna bow down
Reaffirmation of the refusal to yield or submit to external pressures.
