Housefires Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where can I flee from You
Even if I hide on the highest mountain
You are there
Where can I run from Your presence
Where can I flee from You
Even if I lie on the lowest valley
Deeper than any ocean
Your love goes on and on
And on and on
Higher than any mountains
Your love goes on and on
And on and on
Your love goes on and on
And on and on and on
And if I clothe myself in shadow
Where I fade away from You
Even if I fall to the deepest darkness
Love surrounds me still
Even if I fall to the deepest darkness
Love surrounds me still
There is no ending to your
Love that holds on and won't let go
Love that won't leave me on my own
I'm falling deeper into your
Love that holds on and won't let go
Love that won't leave me on my own
Love don't let me go, don't let it go
There's no where I could run
There's no where I could hide
There's no where I could go
That You won't find me
The lyrics of Housefires' song On and On is about the overwhelming and undeniable love of God that pursues us relentlessly, no matter where we go or what we do. The song reassures the listeners that even if they try to run away from God, He will always be there with His love that goes on and on, deeper than any ocean and higher than any mountain.
The verse "Where can I run from Your presence, where can I flee from You?" echoes the Psalm 139:7-10 which says, "Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast." This verse reassures us that we cannot escape God's love and presence no matter where we go.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the endless nature of God's love, which goes on and on, and never ends. Even if we try to hide or fade away from God, His love still surrounds and holds onto us. The bridge of the song is an affirmation of the singers' falling deeper into God's love that holds on and doesn't let go.

Sem Parar
Pra onde posso correr da tua presença?
Pra onde posso fugir de ti?
Mesmo se eu me esconder na montanha mais alta
Lá estás
Pra onde posso correr da tua presença?
Pra onde posso fugir de ti?
Mesmo se eu repousar no vale mais baixo
Lá me encontrarás
Mais profundo do que qualquer oceano
Seu amor continua sem parar
E sem parar
Mais alto do que qualquer montanhas
Seu amor continua sem parar
E sem parar
Seu amor continua sem parar
E sem parar
E se eu me cobrir em sombras
Onde me ocultarei de ti?
Mesmo se eu cair na mais profunda escuridão
O amor me cerca, ainda assim
Mesmo se eu cair na mais profunda escuridão
O amor me cerca, ainda assim
Não há fim para o seu
Amor que persiste e não desistirá
Amor que não vai me deixar sozinho
Estou caindo mais profundo em seu
Amor que persiste e não desistirá
Amor que não vai me deixar sozinho
O amor não me deixa ir, não deixa ir

Why
Do you love us so much
The one
Who spoke existence into existence
Was thinking of you
Us
Little us
Before
Beginnings even began
Look at you!
You can't even fathom
Begin to imagine
The love that was lavished
On you
They say we drown
In this love
Like in an ocean
How?
You drown in oceans
Because oceans
Have depth, length, and width
A surface to which
One may come to draw breath again
You can't drown
In an ocean
So vast
It ran through your future
In your past
Before there were even paths
To run through
All of infinity
Was paved with love for you
There is no air to go to
In his ocean
@bignatec1000
(Continued)
Why
Are we
But dust in the sky
Worth lashes in your side?
Worth
The glance
To even be considered
The apple of your eye
When you
Place in us
Your breath
The normal pattern of life to death
Can't help but go from death to life
For death is an ending
But you are our everlasting beginning
Made to rise
By your resurrection
God
You are so much perfection
That making us a mere reflection
Makes us diamonds

'And if I clothe myself in shadow
Where I fade away from You
Even if I fall to the deepest darkness
Love surrounds me still
Even if I fall to the deepest darkness
Love surrounds me still'
Gives a whole new meaning to I will never leave you nor forsake you.
