Restoration
David Brymer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You bring restoration
You bring restoration
You bring restoration
to my soul

You've taken my pain
called me by a new name
You've taken my shame
and in it's place, You give me joy

You take mourning and turn it into dancing
You take weeping and turn it into laughing
You take mourning and turn it into dancing
You take my sadness and turn it into joy





hallelujah, hallelujah
You make all things new, all things new

Overall Meaning

David Brymer's "Restoration" is a powerful song that speaks about an individual's journey towards redemption and spiritual fulfillment. In essence, the song exhorts that true restoration is only possible through God, and it is only Him who can transform the soul. The repetition of the phrase "You bring restoration to my soul" emphasizes the ways in which God can transform a person from the inside out.


The second verse talks about how Jesus has taken away the pain, shame, and guilt of the singer and replaced it with joy. The allusion to being called by a "new name" echos Revelation 2:17 where Jesus promises to give "to the one who is victorious... a white stone with a new name written on it." This represents a new identity in Christ and a new beginning.


Moreover, the chorus highlights how God's restorative power can turn what was once an occasion for sadness and mourning into a time for dancing and rejoicing. This promise of joy is repeated twice. This chorus is powerful, as it reminds us that God is in the business of transforming our lives and taking that which is broken and making it whole again.
