Room Beyond the Jordan
Journey Beyond Shadows: Finding Light Across the Jordan
Lyrics
Somewhere in the dim light there is sunshine
Somewhere in a place with subdued light, there is happiness or positivity.
And a room beyond the Jordan where he'll stay
Refers to a place, symbolically termed "beyond the Jordan," where someone will remain or find solace.
Though I never met you in your lifetime
Although I never had the chance to meet you while you were alive.
I can't help but walk your footsteps everyday
I can't help but follow the same path or experiences you had every day.
I've been down, I've way deep down in prison
I have experienced difficult times, possibly metaphorically described as being imprisoned.
And sometimes, sometimes that light is hard to find
At times, it's challenging to find positivity or hope.
Well I know there's no one up there to help me
I believe there is no divine intervention to assist me.
Only them answers you left behind
I only have the guidance or solutions that you've left behind.
Somewhere cross the river there is sunshine
There is happiness or positivity on the other side of some figurative river.
And a room beyond the Jordan where he'll stay
Similar to line 2, referring to a place beyond, where someone will find peace.
Though I never met you in your lifetime
Reiterates not having met the person during their lifetime.
I can't help but walk your footsteps everyday
Continuing to walk in the same path or experiences as the person despite not having met them.
I've been down, I've way deep down in prison
Expresses having been in difficult situations akin to being imprisoned.
And sometimes, sometimes that light is hard to find
Reaffirms the struggle to find positivity or hope during tough times.
Well I know there's no one up there to help me
Belief that there's no divine aid available.
Only them answers you left behind
Relying solely on the guidance or solutions left behind by the person.
I've walked through pastures and I've sought the heavens
Having traversed different experiences and sought understanding about one's own existence in the world.
But I can't understand my own place in time
Despite efforts, unable to comprehend one's place in the context of time.
Well I know there's no one up there to help me
Similar to line 16, believing in the absence of divine assistance.
That's gonna keep me from losing my mind
Nothing can prevent the person from maintaining their sanity or mental stability.
May we all go to heaven
An expression of hope or wish for everyone to reach heaven after death.
May we all go to heaven
Repetition of the desire for everyone to go to heaven.
I said may we all go to heaven
Reiteration of the hope for everyone to reach heaven.
I said may we all go to heaven
Repeats the wish for everyone to go to heaven.
