Paint Me A Picture
Kristene DiMarco Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cause all I have are recycled dreams
You spoke to nothing and creation came
I'll look around and I'll do the same
I'll drink in the promise of a world I see
With endless possibilities
No eye has seen and no ear has heard
Oh how Your love
Can move me creatively
I love releasing what's inside of me
Paint me a picture of a future scene
The one that sees the way You see
Exceedingly more than I'm imagining
Is what You have in store for me
Abundantly
You move me creatively
I love releasing what's inside of me
Oh my soul, fix your eyes on His face
Oh my soul, fix your eyes on His face
Oh my soul, fix your eyes on His face
In Kristene DiMarco's "Paint Me a Picture," the singer pleads for someone to paint a picture of a future scene because all she has are "recycled dreams." She recognizes the power of creation through the spoken word, and hopes to be inspired to create something new herself. She believes that there are endless possibilities in the world she can't see or hear yet, but that God has a plan for those he loves that is beyond anything she can imagine.
The chorus emphasizes the theme of creativity and its connection to God's love. The singer exclaims how his love can move her creatively and allow her to release what's inside of her. The bridge calls for the soul to fix its eyes on God's face, as if looking to him for inspiration and direction.
Overall, the song is a call to be open to the possibilities of what can be created through God's love, and to trust in his plan even if it isn't fully visible yet.
