Break the Cages
Break the Cages: Embracing the Limitless Majesty of the Divine
Lyrics
God of everyone, not only those who think like me
Recognition of God as the deity for all, regardless of personal beliefs or perspectives.
King of every truth, not only those that I believe
Acknowledgment that God is the ultimate source of truth, beyond individual convictions.
Alpha and Omega, and every letter in between
Highlighting the all-encompassing nature of God, from the beginning to the end and everything in between.
The space between the stars could not contain Your glory
Expressing the vastness of God's glory, emphasizing that even the space between stars cannot contain it.
Come, break the cages we have tried to place You in
Invitation to break free from limiting perceptions and constraints placed on God.
You are more... You are more
Acknowledgment of God's surpassing nature, stating "You are more" as a declaration of God's greatness.
So much greater than these words we’ve draped You with
Recognition that God exceeds the limitations imposed by human words.
You are more... You are more than this
Reiteration of God's surpassing nature, emphasizing that God is more than what can be expressed.
You are more. You have always been
Affirmation that God has always been more than can be comprehended or articulated.
God of everyone; of all the Earth, not only me
Extension of the idea that God is for everyone on Earth, not limited to the speaker alone.
King of every truth, not only those I choose to speak
Acknowledgment that God is the ultimate authority, irrespective of personal preferences in speaking the truth.
Alpha and Omega, no letters serve to spell Your name
Emphasis on God as the beginning and end, beyond the confines of language.
As distant as the stars and closer than the words I pray
Describing God as both distant, like the stars, and intimately close, transcending the words of prayer.
Every knee will bow and every tongue will speak of love
Proclaiming that every person will eventually acknowledge and speak of love in reverence to God.
Every knee will bow and every tongue will speak of love
Repetition of the idea that all will bow and speak of love in acknowledgment of God's greatness.
We will meet Your eyes, and every voice will speak Your name
Anticipation of meeting God's gaze, with the expectation that every voice will speak God's name.
We will see Your face, and all our words will fall away
Anticipation of seeing God's face, and the belief that all human words will become insignificant in that presence.
The space between the stars could not contain Your glory
Reiteration of the idea that even the vastness between stars cannot contain the glory of God.
