Rocky Ground
Faith's Journey: Nurturing Hope Amidst Rocky Ground
Lyrics
It still feels out there, hasn't taken root
Expressing a sense that faith has not taken root or firmly established itself.
Moved in, planted feet, or animated truth
Contemplating whether faith has been firmly grounded, animated by truth, or is just a superficial presence.
I see it out there. I want to believe
Desire to believe in something, observing faith externally and wanting to embrace it.
With my whole heart--all battered and bruised and weary
Expressing a commitment to believe with a heart that has endured hardships.
Is my faith just a seed sown on rocky ground?
Raising a question about the depth and viability of faith, comparing it to a seed on rocky ground.
Thorns and thistles choke and drown
Metaphorically portraying challenges and obstacles that may hinder the growth of faith.
Is my faith just a seed sown on rocky ground?
Reiterating doubts about faith's foundation and potential difficulties it faces.
I thought it was deeper, I thought fail proof
Reflecting on initial beliefs in the depth and infallibility of faith.
My tears bring a question to my truth
Connecting tears to a questioning of personal truths and beliefs.
I thought it was deeper, I thought fail proof
Repeating the realization of potential flaws in perceived fail-proof faith.
It still feels out there, hasn't taken root
Revisiting the feeling that faith hasn't firmly taken root.
Moved in, planted feet, or animated truth
Reiterating the themes of settling in, grounding truth, and seeking belief.
I see it out there. I want to believe
Reaffirming the desire to believe with a heart that has endured hardships.
With my whole heart--all battered and bruised and weary
Repeating the commitment to believe despite challenges and weariness.
Is my faith just a seed sown on rocky ground?
Reiterating the question about the sustainability of faith on rocky ground.
Thorns and thistles choke and drown
Continuing the metaphor of thorns and thistles representing obstacles to faith.
Is my faith just a seed sown on rocky ground?
Repeating doubts about faith's viability in challenging conditions.
I thought it was deeper, I thought fail proof
Reflecting on the initial perception of faith as deep and fail-proof.
My tears bring a question to my truth
Linking tears to questioning the reliability of personal truths.
I thought it was deeper, I thought fail proof
Reiterating the realization of potential flaws in perceived fail-proof faith.
I think I have faith, think I have faith
Expressing a belief in having faith, suggesting confidence in its existence.
