Reality Check
Unveiling Life's Tapestry: Jonathan Allen Wright's Reality CheckLyrics
Oh I I've seen so many friends run far away
Expressing observation of friends distancing themselves.
I think about them I think about them all
Reflecting on thoughts about those distant friends.
I, I know you will preserve all of your saints
Acknowledging confidence in divine protection for saints.
I know you keep me, I know you keep me
Affirming personal assurance of being kept by a higher power.
Holding on within the grasp of your hand
Describing a sense of security within a divine embrace.
I see you keeping up with a plan
Perceiving a purposeful plan being executed.
I've felt you in so many ways
Experiencing the presence of the divine in various ways.
I've heard you in times I pray
Noting instances of divine communication during prayer.
But still, I can't keep up the pace!
Expressing difficulty in maintaining a consistent spiritual pace.
Ohhh
Emphasizing a feeling or realization.
I know I've seen a billion things
Acknowledging a vast array of experiences.
You've done
Recognition of divine actions and interventions.
So why can't you just keep it all on track
Pondering why maintaining order seems challenging.
Oh tell me why it feels so hard to see it
Expressing difficulty in perceiving divine plans.
Oh pull me back for a reality check
Seeking a reminder or confirmation of reality.
Oh lord, I know you've made promise to keep me
Acknowledging a divine promise for protection.
Sometimes I doubt, help not doubt it lord
Expressing occasional doubts despite divine promises.
Oh you, you've demonstrated so much of your grace
Recognizing abundant demonstrations of divine grace.
That I'm not earning lord, oh I'm not earning all this grace I see you giving to me, I don't want to give up all this peace
Acknowledging the undeserved grace and peace received.
I try to keep up the pace
Struggling to maintain a consistent spiritual pace.
I focus in on your face
Focusing on the divine presence and connection.
But still I sometimes run astray!!
Admitting occasional deviation from the spiritual path.
My reality is crushed by things I've never seen before, a wealth of indestructible noncollapsible nonmateriel
Describing a sense of overwhelming challenges and unfamiliar experiences.
Replace my figment with a flash of your reality so I can know you more based off of what I see life unseen
Seeking a clearer understanding of the divine through tangible experiences.
