Justice
Ed Rec Vol. 3 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
J'ai longtemps pensé que l'humain pouvait définir ce qu'est la justice
Mais tu m'as révélé, que mes bonnes œuvres ne sont pas les conditions d'entrée
Mais qu'il suffit juste, de croire, que tu es mon seul seigneur et sauveur
(Oh quel mystère ?)
Quel est donc le vrai sens de la justice ?)
Ô Dieu révèle moi ce qui est sur ton cœur
Son sang innocent nous a rendus purs
Il a porté chacun de nos péchés
L'entier de nos dettes est désormais payé
Il intercéda en faveur des coupables
Je sais que ce monde est déchu et que l'injustice fait partie du challenge
Mélangée à l'indifférence, le manque de compassion et notre égoïsme
Mais au sein de tout ce chaos tu me rappelle que c'est le Péché (ou le diable ?) qui en est l'auteur, pendant que ton plan bienveillant, plan de rédemption, continue de se révéler aux nations
(Oh quel mystère ?)
Quel est donc le vrai sens de la justice ?)
(Oh quel mystère ?)
Ô Dieu révèle moi ce qui est sur ton cœur
Son sang innocent nous a rendus purs
Il a porté chacun de nos péchés
L'entier de nos dettes est désormais payé
Il intercéda en faveur des coupables
J'étais coupable mais tu ne m'as pas jugé
Tu es venu me changer
J'étais condamné j'avais besoin d'un sauveur
Pour m'acquitter de mes dettes
Il m'a revêtu de son manteau de justice le cramoisi n'est plus
Désormais, Je suis justifié, saint, et irrépréhensible
Il m'a pardonné
(Dans le passé présent et futur)
Il m'a racheté
(Au prix de son sang)
Il m'a délivré
(Des mains de l'ennemi)
Je suis à lui
(Je suis à lui)
je suis à lui
(Son sang m'a purifié)
Il m'a purifié
(Il m'a restauré)
Il m'a restauré
Il m'a qualifié
Je suis à lui, je suis à lui
These lyrics explore themes of faith, salvation, and justice. The songwriter reflects on their upbringing, believing that their good deeds would lead them to paradise. They also held the belief that humans could define what justice is. However, they have a revelation that their good deeds are not the conditions for entry into paradise, but rather it is simply a matter of believing that God is their only lord and savior.
The mystery and true meaning of justice are contemplated in these lyrics, as the songwriter seeks understanding from God. They acknowledge that Jesus' innocent blood has made them pure and that he bore the sins of all, paying the entirety of their debts. They emphasize that Jesus interceded for the guilty, highlighting the grace and forgiveness that comes through him.
Amidst the chaos of the world and the presence of injustice, the songwriter is reminded that sin or the devil is the author of such injustice. They recognize that God's benevolent plan of redemption continues to be revealed to nations, and they yearn for God to reveal what is on his heart regarding justice.
The lyrics also express the songwriter's personal transformation and redemption. They were guilty and condemned but were not judged by God. Instead, God came to change them. They needed a savior to pay off their debts and were clothed in the cloak of Jesus' righteousness. They now consider themselves justified, holy, and blameless through him.
Further, the songwriter reflects on how God has forgiven, redeemed, and delivered them. They profess their belonging to him and the purification and restoration they have experienced through Jesus' blood. With gratitude and assurance, they declare their qualification through God and their complete belonging to him.
