The Words
Discovering the Unspoken: The Heartfelt Prayer in 'The Words'
Lyrics
Lord, I pray that they'd be known
Prayer for recognition and acknowledgment, seeking divine attention.
By no-one else but You
Desire for exclusivity in acknowledgment, specifically from a higher power.
Wholly captivated, holy and made new
Aspiration for complete fascination, holiness, and spiritual rebirth.
Let them be true
Wish for authenticity and sincerity in character.
Let them be true
Reiteration of the desire for truthfulness.
And the reason that I'm asking You today
Explanation of the request, expressing dissatisfaction with ordinary goodbyes.
Is that simple goodbyes just seem so plain
Simple goodbyes are considered bland or insufficient.
And I can't find
Repetition emphasizes the difficulty in expressing feelings.
And I can't find
-And I can't find
-The words
The challenge of finding adequate words, possibly in the context of farewells.
Lord, I pray that You'd be moving
A new prayer, this time for divine intervention and movement.
Let them always dance around
Desire for perpetual joy and celebration, symbolized by dancing.
Keep the wheels of praise a turning
Request for continuous expressions of praise and gratitude.
Let them never feel the ground
Wish for an elevated spiritual state, avoiding worldly concerns.
Let them be free
Call for freedom, possibly spiritual liberation.
Let them be free
Reiteration of the desire for freedom.
Let them be free indeed
Emphasis on absolute freedom.
And the reason that I'm asking You today
Reiteration of dissatisfaction with plain goodbyes.
Is that simple goodbyes just seem so plain
Highlighting the inadequacy of simple goodbyes.
And I can't find
Repetition of the struggle in finding appropriate words.
And I can't find
-And I can't find
-The words
Reiteration of the difficulty in expressing emotions verbally.
Lord, I pray that they'd be known
Repetition of the initial prayer for recognition.
By no-one else but You
Re-emphasis on exclusive acknowledgment from a higher power.
Wholly captivated, holy and made new
Restatement of the desire for spiritual captivation and renewal.
Let them be true
Reiteration of the wish for authenticity and sincerity.
Let them be true
Reiteration of the desire for truthfulness.
And the reason that I'm asking You today
Reiteration of dissatisfaction with plain goodbyes.
Is that simple goodbyes just seem so plain
Restating the perception that simple goodbyes are inadequate.
And I can't find
Repetition underscoring the challenge in verbal expression.
And I can't find
-And I can't find
-The words
Final emphasis on the struggle to find appropriate words.
