In Your Arms
Resurrection Band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(I remember a real young Timothy sitting on a hill. We weren't married yet; we were getting married, I think, in approximately two months. And it was back in April of '72, and we were sitting on this hill, in this wooded area outside of a log cabin. And he said, "Honey, I've got to tell you something; I have to tell you this." And I was...I was crocheting, and I would say, "A-ha, yes...yes, dear." He goes: "I've got to share this vision with you - people may say I'm crazy, you might think I'm crazy...but I believe that God told me something." Said, "I believe that God has told me that we're going to be a rock band, and we're going to play music just like the world, but we're gonna sing about Jesus Christ...and we're gonna go all over the world, we're gonna make many, many albums, and we're gonna see hundreds of young people snatched from the fires of Hell." He also told me...he said that many people were going to misunderstand, they were going to think that what we were doing was evil, and sometimes we would feel under fire for the kind of music and the sort of ministry that we stood for, but that we were not to worry because God had ordained it, and he had spoken to us. ...And that's what my young Timothy said to me on that hill, back in '72.)

Missed the alarm, got up late; some days start out second-rate,
Locked my keys in the car, tripped my way down the stairs,
If I had it together, I'd be almost scared,
It's just the real world, everything don't always go right,
But all I know is: I'll be in you arms tonight, oh.
I'll be in your arms,
I'll be in your arms tonight,
I'll be in your arms,
I'll be in your arms tonight.

Man, I was lonely, I felt so unsure,
Used to think there wasn't any cure for the everyday problems in the everyday world,
But every day ends in your arms, my, my,
What a gift he gave to me, what an angel of love,
Oh, in the crazy mistakes I always seem to make, you take me so high above, oh.

I'll be in you arms,
I'll be in you arms tonight,
Safe within your arms tonight, tonight, yeah.

I'll be in your arms,
I'll be in your arms,
Ooh, I'll be in your arms,
I'll be in your arms.

The grace to face our failure, the strength to carry on,
The love you gave us through you, the heart to sing our song, yeah, yeah.

I'll be in you arms, (I'll be in you arms)
Safe within your arms, (safe within your arms)
I'll be in you arms, (I'll be in you arms)
Safe within your arms, (safe within your arms)
I'll be in you arms, (I'll be in you arms)
Safe within your arms, (safe within your arms)




I'll be in you arms, (I'll be in you arms)
Safe within your arms. (safe within your arms)

For what !

@natamaral141

I remember this tune! I was in high school when I first heard this. Still one of my faves!

@ehrldawg

I never understood why some Christians objects to plain old love songs i.e Strypers Lady . I guess they hadn't read the Song of Solomon.

(Translate to Spanish)
Perdió la alarma, se levantó tarde; algunos días comienzan de segunda categoría,
Guardé mis llaves en el auto, tropecé por las escaleras,
Si lo tuviera todo junto, estaría casi asustado,
Es solo el mundo real, todo no siempre sale bien,
Pero todo lo que sé es: estaré en tus brazos esta noche, oh.
estaré en tus brazos,
Estaré en tus brazos esta noche,
estaré en tus brazos,
Estaré en tus brazos esta noche.
Hombre, estaba solo, me sentía tan inseguro,
Solía ​​pensar que no había cura para los problemas cotidianos en el mundo cotidiano,
Pero cada día termina en tus brazos, mi, mi,
Que regalo me dio, que ángel de amor,
Oh, en los errores locos que siempre parezco cometer, me llevas tan alto, oh.
estaré en tus brazos,
Estaré en tus brazos esta noche,
A salvo dentro de tus brazos esta noche, esta noche, sí.
estaré en tus brazos,
estaré en tus brazos,
Ooh, estaré en tus brazos,
Estaré en tus brazos.
La gracia para enfrentar nuestro fracaso, la fuerza para continuar,
El amor que nos diste a través de ti, el corazón para cantar nuestra canción, sí, sí.
Estaré en tus brazos, (estaré en tus brazos)
Seguro dentro de tus brazos, (seguro dentro de tus brazos)
Estaré en tus brazos, (estaré en tus brazos)
Seguro dentro de tus brazos, (seguro dentro de tus brazos)
Estaré en tus brazos, (estaré en tus brazos)
Seguro dentro de tus brazos, (seguro dentro de tus brazos)
Estaré en tus brazos, (estaré en tus brazos)
Seguro entre tus brazos. (a salvo dentro de tus brazos)
