Love With Justice
Rita Springer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I look at you I catch my breath
I lose my mind for a moment
When I look at you I can't believe
How can it be?
You're so perfect
And God, He kissed me with promise
Your beauty, it looks like righteousness
And I'm in love with Justice
I'm in love with Justice
When I think of you, I fall to my knees
I lift my voice and I worship
Searched, known by God
Knit with mysterious love
Gave you the color of your own nation
God kissed me with promise
God, You kissed me with a hope for a future
And your beauty, it looks like righteousness
And I'm in love with Justice
I'm in love with you, Justice
The lyrics of Rita Springer's song Love With Justice express the powerful emotions of a mother who has adopted a child and is overwhelmed with love for him. The song is inspired by the singer's personal experience of adopting her son Justice, whom she refers to in the song as a symbol of justice and hope in a broken world. In the first verse, the singer marvels at the perfection of her son, expressing her disbelief that such a beautiful and innocent child could exist in a world marked by sin and injustice.
The second verse of the song is a prayer of thanksgiving and worship to God for the gift of her son. The singer acknowledges that Justice is a creation of divine love, known and loved by God even before he was born. She praises God for giving Justice his unique identity and the color of his own nation. She also recognizes that Justice is a promise and a hope for a better future, a future where justice and righteousness will prevail.
The chorus of the song is a declaration of the singer's love for Justice, whom she sees as a living embodiment of justice and righteousness. The repetition of the phrase "I'm in love with Justice" highlights the depth of the singer's emotions and her desire to see justice and righteousness prevail in the world.
