Never Again
Enter the Worship Circle Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You feel the grieving of the broken, And You hold them in Your hands
And You listen to their prayers, their prayers

You hear the crying of the orphan, And You hold them in Your hands
And You listen to their prayers, their prayers

Wake up, God, move yourself, wicked men crush Your children
We pray... we wait, how long until you say "Never Again"

You see the bruises on the victims, And You hold them in Your hands
And You listen to their prayers, their prayers

You are King forever and ever, Your Kingdom come on down
Justice rolls like waters, like waters, where wickedness will drown

The next verse speaks of the crying of the orphaned and God's willingness to listen to their prayers. The chorus then calls out to God to wake up and move Himself as wicked men crush His children. The repetition of the phrase "we wait" expresses the longing for God's intervention and justice. The final verse acknowledges that God sees the bruises of the victims, and, as King forever and ever, His Kingdom will come down, and justice will roll like waters, where wickedness will drown.
