Litany
Unveiling the Divine Struggle: A Journey Through Litany's Profound Allegory
Lyrics
From radio quiet
Seeking refuge from the absence of communication
From the attic and the rots therein
Avoiding the negative elements in the hidden and decaying aspects of life
From the devil at the doorstep
Requesting protection from evil influences at the doorstep
and the Great Unborn
A plea regarding something significant yet unborn or unrealized
Deliver us
Asking to be saved or liberated
From common saints
Seeking deliverance from ordinary saints or common virtues
Deliver us
Requesting liberation from the mundane and a sense of impending doom
and our slick dread
Asking to be saved from a smooth, sly fear or anxiety
Deliver us
Requesting deliverance from impending danger
From the science of the lovesick
Seeking protection from the complexities of love
Lord deliver us
Asking for divine intervention and rescue
From heirlooms of weaths and sea glass
Requesting liberation from inherited burdens and memories of the past
Deliver us O Lord
Seeking deliverance from challenges and difficulties, invoking the divine
(from the lies we tell ourselves)
Expressing a desire to be saved from self-deception and false narratives
O Lord
Reiterating the plea for divine intervention
From a ribfull of cedars
Seeking protection from burdensome responsibilities or obligations
O Lord
Reiterating the plea for divine intervention regarding natural elements
and the seabirds
Seeking deliverance from the symbolism of seabirds, possibly representing challenges
O Lord
Reiterating the plea for divine intervention related to the ocean and its challenges
From the signal like a rosary calling
Asking for protection from signals or influences that resemble a prayer bead sequence
O Lord
Reiterating the plea for divine intervention in the face of signals or influences
From visability
Seeking protection from things that are visible or apparent
O Lord
Reiterating the plea for divine intervention regarding visibility and clarity
And the long currents of this life
Asking for deliverance from the unpredictable and lengthy aspects of life
Lord deliver us
Reiterating the plea for divine intervention in the face of the enduring challenges of life
