Overcome has now returned in 2010. But, this is not a reunion. This is a new era of the band. As time moves on life will always have its challenges and changes. Jason Stinson the front man and main song writer for Overcome lead the band through 7 years of these challenges and changes. All of them rewarding. For the last several years it was time to focus and do “life” apart from this band. Now a new opportunity has once again become a reality and Overcome has returned with new members and new music. More important than all of this isn’t what has changed, but what hasn’t and will never change. That is our purpose and our message. Be ready… a new flame is burning.
New Life
Overcome Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm sick of my ways.
And there's only one cure.
To live my life, for the one who died.
Change my ways, live for Christ.
Away from sin, be strong and win.
My new life, this is my new life.
Dead, I die to this world.
My rewards are great, in him I find my peace.
My new life, this is my new life.
Separation from this world.
I'm sick of my ways.
And there's only one cure.
To live my life, for the one who died.
Change my ways, live for Christ.
Away from sin, be strong and win.
My new life, this is my new life.
This world has gave me nothing, to live for Christ I live for something.
Changed my pace, and I'm winning the race.
My goals in sight, I have seen the light.
The lyrics of the song "New Life" by Overcome revolve around the concept of believers who have come to realize that their previous ways of living were leading them astray and now they have undergone a transformation by choosing a different path. The song is an emotional expression of the Christian belief that one can only find true peace and meaning in life by living for Christ and dedicating oneself to a life away from sin. The singer describes his new identity as one who has died to this world and is now living with the Lord with a new purpose, new goals, and new peace.
The song's message is quite clear; it celebrates the transformative power of a religious experience. A powerful transformation has taken place in the singer's life which he attributes to his newfound faith. The phrase "new life," serves as a metaphor for the transformation that has taken place, as the singer is no longer living in sin, but rather living for Christ. Additionally, the song emphasizes the idea of separation from this world and the need to stay away from sinful ways to achieve the goal of a more fulfilling life.
In conclusion, "New Life" by Overcome is a powerful testimony to the transformative power of religious experiences. The song emphasizes the idea of leaving the previous life of sin and living for Christ. This theme of transformation is represented powerfully through the lyrics of the song that reflect the singer's strong beliefs.
