Salvation Song
Finding Redemption: Echoes of Salvation in Jacob Sigman's Melody
Lyrics
These days I'm always running
Expressing a sense of constant motion or busyness in life.
Looking for a place to hide
Searching for a refuge or a safe haven.
A shelter front the war
Seeking protection from internal struggles or conflicts.
That's raging away on the inside
Describing an inner emotional turmoil or battle.
But as I hear the rolling thunder
Noticing powerful and ominous forces in the surroundings.
And I scream into the skies
Expressing frustration or emotional release by shouting to the sky.
I hear the song of my salvation
Finding solace and hope in a personal "salvation song."
Echo just beneath my eyes
Suggesting that the source of comfort is close and within sight.
I know that there is trouble
Acknowledging difficulties or issues in relationships.
In the company I keep
Indicating concern about the people one associates with.
And fears for friends and family
Expressing worries about the well-being of loved ones.
Make it hard for me to sleep
Impact of concerns affecting the ability to sleep or find peace.
But I lay upon a bed of roses
Metaphorically lying in a comfortable but challenging situation.
And do the best to mind the thorns
Navigating difficulties while trying to avoid potential harm.
And I pray the song of my salvation
Hoping that the personal salvation song will guide to better circumstances.
Will carry me to different shores
Desiring a positive change or transformation in life's journey.
I know the day will come
Acknowledging the inevitability of challenging times in the future.
That all our bodies will turn cold
Reflecting on the eventual mortality of all individuals.
But oftentimes I think that I'm
Feeling prematurely aged or burdened by life's experiences.
Too young to feel this old
Expressing a sense of weariness or exhaustion despite age.
They say a river's still a river
Highlighting the permanence of certain aspects despite changes.
Though the waters all have gone
Emphasizing the enduring nature of fundamental elements.
So no matter how it changes
Accepting change while recognizing underlying constants.
Different names and different faces
Noting the diversity in life's transformations but acknowledging unity.
Know my final resting place is
Asserting that the ultimate destination is secure, regardless of changes.
Singin my salvation song
Reiterating the presence of a personal salvation song throughout life.
