Navigating Life's Endless Sea: Unveiling the Meaning of 'Scriptura'
Lyrics
In an endless sea, show me true north
In a state of confusion or uncertainty, guide me towards a clear direction
In an endless sea, show me true north
Reiteration of the plea for guidance in the vast and uncertain sea of life
Rise up, and rescue me
Rise up and come to my aid
Rise up, and rescue me
Repeat of the call for assistance and support
The Law, by my nature unattainable
Refers to the unattainable nature of the Law or moral standards
My life, is now a fog from which I can't escape
Expresses a sense of being lost and trapped in a confusing existence
What payment must I make? Hopeless
Questions the cost or sacrifice required, feeling without hope
Is all our existence… is it just a mistake
Contemplates the possibility that human existence is a mistake
My desire, to realize your intent
Expresses a longing to understand and fulfill the purpose or plan
What would you have me do
Asks what actions are expected in order to fulfill the purpose
(I love you)
An expression of love, possibly directed towards a higher power or another being
What is left for me to do
Questions what remains to be done in the given situation
I'm buried in requirement
Feels overwhelmed by obligations and responsibilities
(I need you)
An expression of need, possibly directed towards a higher power or another being
The Law, by his sacrifice attainable
Contrasts the unattainable Law with the attainability through sacrifice
My feeble nature
Acknowledges personal weakness or inadequacy
Your kindness, my hope
Finds hope in the kindness of someone or something
And through your will, my destiny is revealed
Believes that destiny is revealed through the will of a higher power
My destiny is revealed to me
Reiteration of the revelation of destiny through divine will
Beyond aged veil, eternal vision manifests
Describes the manifestation of eternal vision beyond the limitations of time
In your word
Refers to the revelation occurring in the context of divine words
Supreme authority
Recognizes the supreme authority of the divine
Restore autonomy
Calls for the restoration of personal autonomy through divine intervention
And with your living word I can reclaim my life
Reclaims life through the power of divine words
Save me
A plea for salvation or rescue
Breath on these words
Asks for the breath of life to be infused into the words
To live again
Expresses a desire to live again through divine intervention
Again
Reiteration of the desire to experience life anew
Rediscover my soul in these words
Desire to rediscover the essence of self through divine words
Indwelt by your Spirit
Acknowledges the indwelling of a divine spirit
Open my eyes for ever
Requests the perpetual opening of eyes to divine truths
Ever
Reiteration of the everlasting nature of opened eyes
My eyes are open
A declaration of awareness or enlightenment
With your water, erode this heart of stone
Requests transformation of the heart through divine influence
With your word, unchain my soul
Desires the liberation of the soul through divine words
