Fall down
Phillips Craig & Dean Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What can I say? That you have never heard
What can I offer you?
And where can I go that you have never been
That you can't lead me through

Take my prayer, hear this cry
Only you can satisfy
Fall down on me and drop me to my knees
Pour over me, I'm deeper than the sea
Rain on me with a love, until I've drown
I need you to fall down

Well, if I had one place, just one place to be
Well, I'd be at your feet
And if I had one prayer, I know what I'd pray
I'd ask you to fall down on me

Take my prayer, hear this cry
Only you can satisfy

Fall down on me and drop me to my knees
Pour over me, I'm deeper than the sea
Rain on me with a love, until I've drown
I need you to fall down

Take my words, hear this cry
Only you can satisfy

Fall down on me and drop me to my knees
Pour over me, I'm deeper than the sea
Rain on me with a love, until I've drown
I need you to fall down, yeah, yeah

I need you to fall down
Fall down, to fall down on me




Fall down, to fall down, fall down
I need you to fall down

Overall Meaning

The song "Fall Down" by Phillips Craig & Dean is a song about surrendering oneself completely to God. The lyrics talk about how helpless and insignificant we are in front of God and how we need him to intervene and lead us through life. The song begins with the singer acknowledging that there is probably nothing new or different he can say to God that he hasn't said before, but he is still seeking God's help. The lyrics then talk about how the singer wants to be at God's feet and how he wants God to "fall down" on him.


The next verse talks about how the singer wants to drown in God's love and be completely submerged in it until he is unable to breathe. The chorus is repeated a few times, emphasizing the singer's need for God to fall down on him and satisfy him completely. The song ends with the same chorus being repeated, with the singer once again stating that he needs God to fall down.


In essence, the song is a cry for help from a person who recognizes that they are powerless without God and desperately needs his guidance and love to lead their life.
