Breaking the Mirror of Pride: Unveiling God's Strategy
Lyrics
You've got your best man on the front side
You have your most trusted ally on the forefront.
You always show your best side
You consistently display your best qualities.
And evil's always on the other side
Evil is always perceived to be on the opposing side.
You say this is your strategy
You claim that this is your chosen approach or plan.
But son I hope you take it from me
However, I advise you, my child, to understand that you resemble your adversary.
You look just like your enemy
You bear a striking resemblance to your enemy.
You're full of pride
You possess an excessive amount of self-importance.
We better trash our idols if we want to be
To truly serve in the army of the Lord, we must eliminate our false gods.
In the army of the Lord
To be part of God's army, we need to abandon our pride.
And the greatest idol is you and me,
The most significant idol is the sense of self (you and me).
We better get on the threshing floor
We must engage in a process of self-examination and repentance.
When will we learn that God's strategy
When will we realize that God's plan involves giving glory to Him?
Is giving glory to the Lord?
The key to God's strategy is acknowledging His glory.
We better trash our idols if we want to be
Eliminate our false gods to be part of the army of the Lord.
In the army of the Lord
To be in God's army, we must rid ourselves of idols.
Star how beautiful you shine
Addressing a celestial body, emphasizing its beauty.
You shine more beautiful than mine
Comparing the star's radiance to the speaker's own.
You shine from sea to shining sea
The star's brilliance spans across the entire world.
World-wide is your strategy
Your approach is global in scope.
But shinning star I hope you see
Despite your shine, realize that if everyone is focused on you, they are not seeing me.
If the whole wide world is staring straight at you
If the entire world is fixated on you, they are unaware of my existence.
They can't see me...
Their attention on you prevents them from seeing me.
