GOD
Rebecca St. James vs. Earthsuit Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
While it's spinnin' 'round
I wanna ride on that wheel, while it's spinnin' 'round
Wheel within a wheel within...wheel within a mighty wheel
Wheel within a wheel within...wheel within a mighty wheel
I wanna go where no man on Earth has gone before
I wanna go where no man's gone before
I saw a wheel way high up in the air and I said
I'm gonna ride that wheel today, today
We'll go where no one's gone before
We'll see what no one's seen before
We'll go where no one's gone before
It's a wheel within a mighty wheel
The song "God" by Rebecca St. James vs. Earthsuit is a vibrant expression of the desire to go where no man has gone before and ride on the wheel of God while it spins around. The first verse declares a longing to experience the fullness of God's divine presence and purpose. The "wheel" represents the limitless and boundless nature of God's sovereignty and power, which the singer hopes to ride on and be a part of, rather than standing on the sidelines.
As the song progresses, the chorus repeats the phrase, "wheel within a wheel within...wheel within a mighty wheel." This phrase is taken from a vision described in the bible's book of Ezekiel, where the prophet saw the glory of the Lord in the form of a chariot with wheels within wheels, moving with great speed and power. This phrase emphasizes the magnitude and complexity of God's power and the beauty of His divine presence.
The second verse dives deeper into the desire to explore the unknown, to see what no one has seen before, and to go where no one has gone before. The singer longs to experience God's glory in ways that transcend human understanding and limitations. The song is a full-throated expression of the desire to know God deeply and intimately, to be caught up in His infinite love and power, and to explore the unknown depths of His majesty.
