Collide
ICF Worship Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So they say
But what kind of love
Would die in my place
The untainted one
Grace divine
Would lower Himself
We were on collision course
My fate now sealed
I'm forever Yours
You gave Your life
The perfect sacrifice
For in the moment You died
You let heaven and earth collide
Draw me to Your love
All my pride surrendered
Every fear dissolves
Standing in Your presence
Arms are open wide
I am gladly falling
Hearts are intertwined
You and I - colliding
The ICF Worship's song, Collide, is an incredible piece of music that is full of meaning behind each set of lyrics. The first line, "Love conquers all so they say," is a familiar phrase that references the power of love, and the songwriters then ask the question, "But what kind of love would die in my place?" The answer is the "untainted one"; Jesus Christ.
The lyrics then speak about Jesus dying for humanity, carrying our blame, in a moment of immense pain and sacrifice. The songwriters are reminded of our relationship with God, who decided to love us despite our flaws and mistakes. This realization is life-changing and causes us to surrender our pride and fears, standing fully exposed and vulnerable before God, with arms wide open, as we collide with His love.
The beauty of Collide is in the simple but profound message that love (in the form of Jesus' sacrifice) truly conquers all things. The song celebrates the freedom we feel when we recognize and submit to this reality, reminding us that we are forever God's, and nothing can change that.

Lyrics Deutsch:
Die Liebe überwindet alles
So sagen sie
Aber was für eine Liebe
Würde an meiner Stelle sterben?
Der Fehlerlose, die göttliche Gnade
würde sich selber erniedrigen (erniedrigt sich selber)
um meine Schande zu tragen
Wir waren auf Kollisionskurs
Mein Schicksal ist nun besiegelt
Ich gehöre für immer Dir
Du gabst Dein Leben
Das perfekte Opfer
Denn in dem Moment, als Du starbst
Hast Du Himmel und Erde kollidieren lassen
Zieh mich hin zu Deiner Liebe
Mein ganzer Stolz hat kapituliert
Jede Angst ist löst sich auf
in Deiner Gegenwart stehend
Die Arme weit offen
Ich lasse mich gerne fallen
Die Herzen sind verflochten/verschlungen
Du und ich - kollidieren(d)
...diese Worte waren Realität in Deboras Leben und Sterben hier auf der Erde. Nun darf sie ihren Retter-Gott von Angesicht zu Angesicht sehen. Herrlichkeit! 💗👑
