TRIBULATIONS
Overcoming Darkness: Triumph in Tribulations
Lyrics
Yeah
Expression of affirmation or agreement.
Used to think I had no power over every thought that
Initial belief in lack of control over thoughts.
Came inside my mind until I learned that I could fight back
Realization of the ability to combat intrusive thoughts.
With my sword of spirit yes I'm piercing through the lies that's
Metaphorical use of "sword of spirit" to combat falsehood.
Coming from the enemy I see through the disguise
Ability to discern deception from an adversary.
And I'm praying
Engaging in prayer for guidance and strength.
That I never go back to my ways
Expressing the desire to avoid reverting to past behaviors.
I need patience
Recognizing the need for patience in challenging times.
Sometimes it's so hard for me to wait
Acknowledging the difficulty of waiting.
I've been pacing
Feeling restless, anxious, or eager for resolution.
I just pray that God gives me the strength
Seeking strength from a higher power, specifically God.
He's so gracious
Acknowledging God's grace in overcoming trials.
Through my tribulations, cause
Referring to personal challenges and hardships.
I've been going through it on the low
Experiencing difficulties privately or discreetly.
I need all the help I can get to stay afloat
Requesting assistance to stay emotionally afloat.
Lord, I know you hear me crying out when I'm alone
Praying to God in moments of loneliness and distress.
Then I remember that one time you saved my soul
Recalling a past instance of spiritual salvation.
It feels so good when I finally let it all out
Expressing relief after opening up emotionally.
No more holding back, imma give you every single, doubt
Committing to be transparent and share doubts.
That I ever had, Jesus you're working it all out
Acknowledging God's ongoing work in life's challenges.
For me right now
Acknowledging God's active presence in the current moment.
I was in a dark place
Reflecting on a past period of emotional darkness.
Back then when I looked
Searching for truth in the world during a difficult time.
For the truth in the world
Experiencing pain and hardship in life.
I had so much pain come my way
Reflection on the pain experienced.
I never would've thought
Surprising redemption from sins.
From all my sins that I could
Unexpected salvation from a troubled past.
Ever be saved
Feeling saved and rescued from a dire situation.
I was down on my last leg
Experiencing extreme difficulty or adversity.
He pulled me up from the dark depths
Acknowledging divine intervention in a dark time.
And kept the heart beating In my chest
Gratitude for the preservation of life and well-being.
I know what it's like to feel rejected
Understanding the pain of rejection.
Tossed right to the curb
Being cast aside without recognition of one's value.
Don't how much your worth
Realizing personal worth and value.
And they hit you where it hurts
Experiencing emotional pain and vulnerability.
He said it and He meant it
Emphasizing the truth and reliability of divine promises.
Right up in the word
Highlighting the trustworthiness of God's word.
He'll never leave the herd
Assurance of God's constant presence and care.
I believe it still
Personal belief in God's enduring faithfulness.
I've been going through it on the low
Reiteration of facing challenges privately or discreetly.
I need all the help I can get to stay afloat
Request for continued assistance in overcoming difficulties.
Lord, I know you hear me crying out when I'm alone
Expressing vulnerability and seeking divine comfort.
Then I remember that one time you saved my soul
Recollection of a past significant spiritual experience.
