One Day I Will Sin No More
Embracing Redemption: A Journey Beyond Sin in Ezra Furman's Melody
Lyrics
One day I will sin no more
Expressing the aspiration to stop committing sins in the future.
One day I will sin no more
Reiteration of the desire to cease sinful behavior.
But I'll keep this thought in the back of my mind
Acknowledging the intention to remember this commitment.
Lord's up ahead, and the Devil's behind
Recognizing the spiritual journey with the presence of both positive (Lord) and negative (Devil) influences.
And I will sin no more
Reaffirmation of the commitment to refrain from sinning.
One day heaven and Earth will be like one
Anticipation of a future state where heaven and Earth are harmonized.
One day heaven and Earth will be like one
Reiteration of the vision of a unified heaven and Earth.
But until that day, oh, the day that I die
Awaiting the day of death with a commitment to raise one's hand towards the sky.
And I raise my hand up to the sky
Symbolic gesture of seeking divine connection or surrender.
And I will sin no more
Recommitment to a sinless life.
One day first shall be last and last be first
Envisioning a future where the order of first and last is reversed.
One day first shall be last and last be first
Reiteration of the reversal of positions in the future.
'Til the day it all comes crashing in
Anticipating a day of reckoning or a significant event.
I ask forgiveness for my sins
Seeking forgiveness for past transgressions.
And I will sin no more
Commitment to cease sinning after seeking forgiveness.
One day I will sin no more
Reaffirmation of the desire to lead a sinless life in the future.
One day
A standalone line expressing the hope for a sinless day.
But I keep this thought in the back of my mind
Reiterating the commitment to remember the spiritual journey.
The Lord's up ahead, and the devil's behind
Acknowledging the continuous presence of both positive and negative influences.
And I will sin no more
Final commitment to a future free from sin.
