Reborn
Rebecca St-James Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's someone in my life
And peace I can't describe
For I've been reborn
If you see a change in me don't wonder
I've found a whole new life
And hope that I can't hide
For I've been reborn
Have you ever felt a longing
A searching, within your soul
You want something more
But you don't know what for
There's one who will reach across the distance
From the heavens to the earth
Because he loves you
He loves you
Have you ever felt that something
Is missing within your soul
You want something more,
But you don't know what for
There is only One you need,
But you've got to believe
That He loves you enough
To give His life

If you see a change in me don't wonder
Don't be surprised if you notice a difference in me
There's someone in my life
I have someone new in my life
And peace I can't describe
I can't find the words to explain how peaceful I feel
For I've been reborn
Because I've been born again
I've found a whole new life
I have a completely new way of living now
And hope that I can't hide
I'm filled with hope that is too great to keep to myself
Have you ever felt a longing
Have you ever felt a deep desire within you
A searching, within your soul
A longing that comes from deep within your being
You want something more
You know deep down that there must be something more to life
But you don't know what for
But you can't quite put your finger on what it is
There's one who will reach across the distance
There is someone who will reach out to you no matter where you are
From the heavens to the earth
From the highest place to the lowest
Because he loves you
Because he loves you deeply and unconditionally
He loves you
He really loves you
Have you ever felt that something
Have you ever felt that something is missing
Is missing within your soul
That there is a part of you that is not complete
You want something more,
You know that there is more to life than what you have
But you don't know what for
But you can't seem to figure out what it is
There is only One you need,
There is only one thing you need
But you've got to believe
But you have to have faith and trust
That He loves you enough
Believe that He loves you so much
To give His life
That He was willing to sacrifice everything for you

One of the best pop-rock artists and Christian artists of the 90s! I miss this era of rock music! I recently bought Kylie Minogue's rock album from the 90s, fell in love with that, and decided to revisit Rebecca's stuff!

This song was amazing when I first heard it, when I heard it in concert, and even now years later, it still makes an impact on me. 😄

There needs to be more songs like these on Christian radio. Even today. Seems like so much uniqueness is gone from it, unlike how it used to be.

This music video scared me when I was little, I have no idea why. I was only 8 years old, that was like 5 years ago so whatever ^-^ I love her outfits! and I love this song too."That He loves you, enough to give His life" is amazing!! I love this..It really speaks out about God and how He loves us so much. It really makes me impatient to get to Heaven but I still have to wait to help other friends and to share the joy us Christians have! I can't wait though! :D <3 Thank you for the upload!!

She is the coolest. And she was ahead of the game with EDM in Christian music.
