Brave New World
Acappella Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who do you run to, who do you run to
Who you gonna run to, who you gonna run to
Who do you run to when your hope is gone?
I come running, running back to the One who shelters me
Who do you run to when the fear is strong?
I come running, running back to the One who comforts me
Easy answers are lost inside your perspective
Seems like there's nowhere left to turn
Who do you lean on when your light is low?
I come running, running back to the One who lets me see
Who do you turn to when you don't belong?
I go running, running back to the One who set me free
There's comforting lifeline who's waiting to cancel your alarm
He's a friend who promises to protect you
As he opens up his arms and says
Chorus:
Welcome to the brave new world
Welcome to the place you've always longed to be
Welcome to the brave new world
Once you've seen this joy you'll never ever want to leave
This place brings a new dimension to life
Cause the one in control here is Jesus Christ, so
Welcome to the brave new world
Who do you run to when your joy is gone?
I go running, running back to the One who made me strong
Who do you go to when your answer's wrong?
I start falling, falling on my knees to ask the Lord
He said, "Come to me, all of you whose load is heavy from the storm"
There is rest in my Savior's hand that will never pass away
He will always be around, so
Repeat Chorus
He's everlasting, he's faithful and true
He is the door that will open to the brave new world
Repeat Chorus (x2)
Welcome to the brave new,
welcome to the brave new,
Welcome to the Brave New World
Scriptural Reference:
"I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True." Revelation 19:11a
The song "Brave New World" by Acappella speaks to the idea of turning to Jesus Christ during times of struggle and uncertainty. The repeated question of "Who do you run to?" highlights the fact that we often turn to different people or things in our times of need, but the singer asserts that ultimately, the only one who can provide lasting comfort and protection is God. The lyrics mention troubled times and easy answers that are lost within our own limited perspective, but also offer hope in the form of a "comforting lifeline" who is both protecting and freeing. The chorus paints a picture of a world where Jesus Christ is in control, a world that promises joy and rest. The song ends with a reference to Revelation 19:11a, which speaks of a rider called "Faithful and True" - likely a reference to Jesus himself.

man, I haven't listened to these songs and this group for a long time. Brings back memories of when I first got saved and listened to nothing but this group because I so loved and still love A Capella style music. Thank you for posting.
