The Second Coming
Visions of Majesty: A Dream Unveiling Victory's Face
Lyrics
Until the time
Expressing anticipation or a specific period leading to an event.
I had a dream one night
Describing a personal dream experienced by the speaker.
That I was standing in the street
Setting the scene of the dream – standing in the street.
And something drew my eyes
Something in the dream captures the speaker's attention.
To the heavens where I could see a light
Directed gaze towards the heavens, where a light is observed.
That was the climax of my sight
The highest point or culmination of the speaker's vision.
I had never seen such majesty
Expressing awe at the extraordinary and impressive sight.
In all my life
Highlighting the exceptional nature of the observed majesty.
I could not turn away
Unable to divert attention; captivated by the spectacle.
Was this that fateful day
Speculation about a significant day, possibly a turning point.
Where I would see the face of victory
Anticipation of witnessing the face of victory.
That saved my life
The victorious face is associated with saving the speaker's life.
When on that cross he died
Reference to the crucifixion and the pivotal event of Jesus's death.
I did not see his face that day
Clarifying that the face wasn't seen during the crucifixion.
After all this was only a dream
Acknowledging the dream nature of the experience.
In a dream you can only see
Limitations of dreams – only perceiving what the mind comprehends.
What your mind can understand
Reiterating the constrained nature of dream perception.
And that was the climax of my sight
Repeating the earlier description of the peak of the vision.
I had never seen such majesty
Reiteration of the awe-inspiring nature of the observed majesty.
In all my life
Restating the extraordinary quality of the sight.
And this is why
Introducing the reason behind the inability to deny the experience.
I could never deny
Connecting the inability to deny with the observed majesty.
As I looked up to the sky
Shifting focus to looking up at the sky within the dream.
I saw the clouds turn to light
Observing a transformation of clouds into light in the dream.
I can't describe the feeling inside
Expressing difficulty in articulating the emotional response.
A feeling I won't feel
Acknowledging a unique and intense feeling that won't recur immediately.
Again until the time
Pointing to the expectation of experiencing the feeling again in the future.
When we rise
Referring to a future event of rising, possibly with a broader significance.
