Set Me Apart
Set Me Apart: A Prayer for Strength and Wisdom in the Face of Adversity
Lyrics
So many enemies fighting against me
Facing numerous adversaries opposing me
Who will help me
Seeking assistance, wondering who will support me
I can't deny there's no power with me
Admitting a lack of personal strength or authority
Dying silently
Experiencing a quiet struggle or suffering
Father, I confess I know nothing
Acknowledging a lack of knowledge or understanding
But I need everything
Expressing a need for everything, a complete dependence
My world is upside down, is upside down
Describing a chaotic or disordered personal world
Help me figure it out
Pleading for assistance in figuring out the challenges
Set me apart so I can serve You better
Requesting to be set apart for a better service to a higher purpose
Set me apart so that my enemies can come to know You better, sweeter
Asking to be set apart for the purpose of introducing enemies to a sweeter knowledge of the Divine
Jesus set me apart, set me apart
Repeating the plea to Jesus for being set apart
People will smile at you highly pretentious
Noting that people may falsely present themselves as friendly or supportive
Give me wisdom
Requesting wisdom in navigating such situations
Some try to pass their negative infections
Referring to the negative influence some people try to spread
Let me hold on
Expressing a desire to hold onto positive elements
To every word You said
Committing to remembering and following divine guidance
They give life and lifting me high
Recognizing the positive impact of divine teachings, bringing life and elevation
And my purpose is so clear, it is so clear
Affirming clarity in personal purpose
Thank you Lord I need more
Expressing gratitude and a need for more divine assistance
At night I pray for my enemies
Mentioning praying for adversaries during the night
So You can be blessed
Asking for blessings for oneself and adversaries
And they can be saved Father
Desiring salvation for adversaries, acknowledging a higher power
You are almighty
Acknowledging the almighty nature of the addressed higher power
You are righteous
Acknowledging the righteousness of the higher power
And I need You, I need You to...
Expressing a continued need for the higher power
