Stronger
Nashville Tribute Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A handful of precious stories told
From the hearts of people like you and me
s that made it through history
Hands held firmly to the rod
Lives spent knowing the will of God
Heaven knows i need what they have to say
Until I'm hangin' onto every word
And that something deep inside me stirs
Caught in the spirit of the words im readin'
In my soul i wanna start singin'
Like a lighthouse in the dark
Safe harbor to my heart
And oh im so much stronger
At times when faith is paper thin
And everyday's a battle that's hard to win
I see 'em like an old friend on the shelf
An age-old answer to a cry for help
And one by one every question mark
Becomes a quiet answer to my heart
Every little thing I've been goin' through
Is lost in a prayer and a page or two
Until I'm hangin' onto every word
And that something deep inside me stirs
Caught in the spirit of the words im readin'
In my soul i wanna start singin'
Like a lighthouse in the dark
Safe harbor to my heart
And oh im so much stronger
Down through the ages
My life's found in the pages
Until I'm hangin' onto every word
And that something deep inside me stirs
Caught in the spirit of the words im readin'
In my soul i wanna start singin'
Like a lighthouse in the dark
Safe harbor to my heart
And oh im so much stronger
Oh and i'm so much stronger

The lyrics celebrate the value of ancient texts, describing them as little books filled with precious stories that have made it through history. The song speaks of the steadfastness of those who hold tightly to their faith and the will of God, and the ways in which the words found on a page can resonate deeply within us, helping us to navigate even the darkest of times.
The song speaks specifically of the power of scripture to offer comfort, hope, and guidance when we are struggling with questions and doubts. It describes the way that even when our faith feels paper-thin, the words found within these texts can provide an age-old answer to our cries for help.
