Lyrics
Give us this day all that you showed me
Request for receiving the teachings and experiences shown.
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes...
Desire for faith and glory until the speaker's kingdom arrives.
Give us this day all that you showed me
Repetition of the request for what has been demonstrated.
The power and the glory till my kingdom comes
Seeking power and glory until the speaker's kingdom comes.
Give me all the stories you told me
Asking for the narratives previously shared.
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes
Yearning for faith and glory until the speaker's kingdom arrives.
And they say that in our time
Reference to a belief that goodness will decline in the current era.
All that's good will fall from grace
Suggesting that even virtuous things will lose favor.
Even saints would turn their face
Implies that even saints would reject what's happening.
In our time
Reiteration of the challenging circumstances in the current time.
And they told us that in our days
Reference to information given about the present days.
Different word said in different ways
Indicating that different words may have diverse interpretations.
Have other meanings from he who says
Words spoken by someone else may have different meanings.
In our time
Reaffirming the challenges faced in the contemporary period.
Give us this day all that you showed me
Repetition of the request for teachings and experiences.
The power and the glory till my kingdom comes
Seeking power and glory until the speaker's kingdom arrives.
Give me all the stories you told me
Desire for the narratives previously shared.
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes
Yearning for faith and glory until the speaker's kingdom comes.
And they say that in our time
Reference to reaping from the legacy of the past.
We would reap from their legacy
Learning from the experiences and wisdom of those who came before.
And we would learn from what they had seen
Extracting knowledge from what others have witnessed.
In our time
Reiteration of facing challenges in the contemporary period.
And they told us that in our days
Reference to being informed about the present days.
We would know what was high on high
Understanding what is considered important or divine.
We would follow and not defy
Following rather than opposing higher ideals.
In our time
Reaffirmation of the challenges faced in the contemporary period.
Give us this day all that you showed me
Repetition of the request for teachings and experiences.
The power and the glory till my kingdom comes
Seeking power and glory until the speaker's kingdom arrives.
Faithless in faith. we must behold the things we see
Suggesting a lack of faith, requiring observation of visible things.
Give us this day all that you showed me
Repetition of the request for what has been demonstrated.
The power and the glory till my kingdom comes
Desire for power and glory until the speaker's kingdom comes.
Give me all the stories you told me
Yearning for the narratives previously shared.
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes
Seeking faith and glory until the speaker's kingdom arrives.
Give us this day all that you showed me
Repetition of the request for teachings and experiences.
The power and the glory till my kingdom comes
Desire for power and glory until the speaker's kingdom comes.
Give me all the stories you told me
Yearning for the narratives previously shared.
The faith and the glory till my kingdom comes
Seeking faith and glory until the speaker's kingdom arrives.
Till my kingdom comes
Repetition emphasizing the persistence of the request.
Till the kingdom come!
Stressing the anticipation of the speaker's kingdom.
