Words Remain
Moderator Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And my hands are growing old
And weary with pain
Still I fold them to pray

To the one unchanged
Yesterday and today
Oh YHWH
And my hands are growing old
And weary with pain
Still I fold them to pray

To the one unchanged




Yesterday and today
Oh YHWH

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Moderator's song 'Words Remain' convey a sense of steadfast faith in the face of physical pain and aging. The repeated line "And my hands are growing old/And weary with pain" speaks to the physical toll of living, but the singer doesn't allow their physical limitations to diminish their faith. Instead, they continue to pray, acknowledging the unchanging nature of the divine. The repeated use of the name "YHWH" (an ancient name for God) adds to the sense of grounding and resilience conveyed by the lyrics.


The repeated refrain in this song creates a meditative quality, inviting the listener to join in the prayerful meditation that the singer engages in. The song's focus on the physical body also underscores the embodied nature of faith; even as our bodies age and decline, our spirits and our faith can remain strong.

A work of art man. This whole album is great, but this song is definitely a stand out. 

@nearharzboy9754

So true, a piece of art brother!!!

@RedroomStudios

you realize all these tracks are old songs from 40-50 years ago, simply remixed and with an electronic beat added right? they arent creating these songs from scratch. I have tracked down a lot of the originals that are incredible on their own.
