Was driving after a doctors appointment in Fort Worth last night, and heard this song again for the first time. Never really been a Switchfoot fan, but the more I listen to the lyrics on their new album, I think all that’s changing. Such a powerful song, and I thought I’d share it with you!
“Let Your love be strong” Switchfoot, Oh Gravity:
In this world of news, I’ve found nothing new
I’ve found nothing pure
Maybe I’m just idealistic to assume that truth
Could be fact and form
That love could be a verb
Maybe I’m just a little misinformedAs the dead moon rises, and the freeways sigh
Let the trains watch over the tides and the mist
Spinning circles in our sky’s tonight
Let the trucks roll in from Los Angeles
Maybe our stars are unanimously tired(chorus)
Let your love be strong, and I don’t care what goes down
Let your love be strong enough to weather through the thunder cloud
Fury and thunder clap like stealing the fire from your eyes
All of my world hanging on your loveLet the wars begin, let my strength wear thin
Let my fingers crack, let my whole world fall apart
Train the monkeys on my back to fight
Let it start tonight
When my world explodes, when my stars touch the ground
Falling down like broken satellitesLet your love be strong, and I don’t care what goes down
Let your love be strong enough to weather through the thunder cloud
Fury and thunder clap like stealing the fire from your sky’s
All that i am hanging on, all of my world resting on your love
Good thoughts for tonight… Missing my wife tonight. Thankful for another day to live.
“Lord, let Your will be done in me, let Your kindgom come in me, let my life be a preview of coming attractions.”
