The Power of Your Love
Geoff Bullock Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let my heart be changed, renewed
Flowing from the grace
That I found in You.
And Lord I've come to know
The weaknesses I see in me
Will be stripped away
By the power of Your love.
Let Your love surround me
Bring me near
Draw me to Your side.
And as I wait
I'll rise up like the eagle
And I will soar with You
Your Spirit leads me on
In the power of Your love.
Lord unveil my eyes
Let me see You face to face
The knowledge of Your love
As You live in me.
Lord renew my mind
As Your will unfolds in my life
In living every day
In the power of Your love.
Geoff Bullock's song "The Power of Your Love" is a potent expression of Christian faith and surrender to God's love. The opening lines "Lord I come to You/Let my heart be changed, renewed/Flowing from the grace/That I found in You," highlights the transformation and renewal that comes with believing in God's grace.
The following lines, "And Lord I've come to know/The weaknesses I see in me/Will be stripped away/By the power of Your love," suggest that Bullock recognizes his own shortcomings and is seeking God's guidance and strength to overcome them. The chorus repeats the theme of surrender and seeking protection from God's love and guidance, "Hold me close/Let Your love surround me/Bring me near/Draw me to Your side."
Towards the end of the song, Bullock asks God to reveal himself to him further, to "unveil [his] eyes" so that he may experience "the knowledge of [His] love/As You live in me." He then asks God to "renew [his] mind/As [His] will unfolds in my life/In living every day/In the power of Your love." This final verse echoes the Christian belief that surrendering to God's will and living in His love is an ongoing process that requires daily renewal and commitment.
