Feelings
Chandler Moore Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I found myself in a place of sorrow
I found myself in a place of grief
And at first I didn't have a language for it
All I knew something was off
And I couldn't trace it back to any missstep I took
I couldn't trace it back to anything that I have done
I was just, my emotions were just
I had feelings, I was feeling a lot
Um, my lyric was pandemics of something I never even knew could happen
Or whether it was relational stuff that was just not working out
Friends just not ending, friendship not ending well
Or it was just my own personal brokeness
Inertenal, inner, internal battle
I just had feelings, still have feelings
And what I realize is that
There is a place and feelings where you can honour the Lord
Where I can have these feelings
And He is not in heaven like, "Hey, Get out of there"
"Get out of those feelings, don't feel that"
He is not rushing me to get to a place that I am not
But He is not just in heaven but
He is sitting with me in it
In my tears, in my confusion, in my frustration, in my questions
He is sitting here, present with me and
I have realized and I have learned something about Him
In my feelings that I may have not learned in the Spirit perse
I have learned something about Him being the God of my emotions
The one who created me
And I may not have learned, had I not been in this place
I've learned how to suffer with Him
I think a lot of times
Before in my life, I've slipped into depression easier
And slipped into a worldly grief easier
Because I've tried to suffer without Him
But I've learned how to suffer with Him
Through this process I haven't been able to pray like I used to
I've learned how to suffer with Him
In fellowship join Him in the fellowship of his suffering
And that's what this album is, that's what these song's are
My process of lement
My process of suffering with Him
Being able to feel my feelings but not lean on them
Father I thank you for allowing me to have feelings
The lyrics to Chandler Moore's song "Feelings" describe a season of emotional pain and confusion in his life, and the ways in which he has learned to process those feelings in a healthy and spiritually grounded way. Moore sings about finding himself in a place of sorrow and grief, without any clear explanation for why he was feeling that way. He describes the difficulty of tracing the source of his emotions to any particular event or circumstance in his life, and the feeling of being overwhelmed by waves of feelings that seemed to come from nowhere.
Despite the confusion and pain he was experiencing, Moore found a sense of peace and reassurance in the knowledge that God was present with him in his feelings. He sings about how he came to understand that it was possible to honor God even in the midst of difficult emotions, and that there was value in sitting with those feelings and learning from them rather than trying to push them away or deny them. Through this process, Moore came to recognize that God was the "God of his emotions," and that he could draw nearer to God by allowing himself to fully experience and process his feelings in a healthy way.
Moore's lyrics speak to the universal human experience of struggling with difficult emotions and trying to make sense of their meaning and purpose. His message is one of hope and faith, emphasizing the importance of being present with oneself and with God in the midst of emotional pain and confusion, rather than trying to rush through or deny those feelings.
