Right Where You Want Me
Embraced by Grace: Journey to Redemption
Lyrics
Searching for my place in this world
Expressing a sense of searching for purpose and belonging in the world.
Getting lost over and over again
Acknowledging a recurring experience of feeling lost.
Casting lustrous pearls
Symbolizing valuable and beautiful aspects of life.
Yet you protected my heart
Acknowledging someone who protected the singer's emotions or heart.
You never let me stray too far
Highlighting the protective nature of the person, ensuring the singer doesn't go astray.
You knew I couldn't pull myself out
Acknowledging personal limitations and the need for external help.
By the strength of my arms
Recognizing the inability to overcome challenges alone and needing assistance.
(Chorus:)
Introduction to the recurring theme of being in a specific situation.
You've got me right where you want me
Emphasizing being under someone's control or influence willingly.
You took me and put me in my place
Describing an action where the person placed the singer in a suitable position.
You've got me right where you want me
Reiterating the singer's acceptance of being in a controlled position.
And I never felt better
Expressing contentment and a positive emotional state in the controlled situation.
All of my words were profane
Admitting to using inappropriate language or behavior.
The only time I called Your Name I took it in vain
Recalling a moment when the singer misused or disrespected a sacred name.
Yet You heard my cry, even though I lived a lie
Highlighting divine understanding and responsiveness despite living dishonestly.
You new that I would be Your servant
Committing to serving a higher purpose despite past shortcomings.
'Til the day that I die
Expressing dedication to being a servant until the end of life.
(Chorus 3x)
Reiteration of being in a controlled or desired situation, emphasizing the permanence.
You've got me right where you want me
Repeated affirmation of being under someone's influence or control.
You've got me right where you want me
-You've got me right where you want me
