2) sela was formed in early 2004 in Rotterdam, NLand started off experimenting with different sounds to eventually find it’s way in a mixture of grunge, metal and indie. To get a rough idea, their songs have been influenced by bands like At The Drive-in, Far, Sevendust, Green Lizard and Nirvana. The name sela has been extracted from the hebrew word 'selah' - the point of silence before the (musical) climax or explosion. It is commonly used in Christian songstructure.
Dimitri and Daniël met in 2003 with the desire to start a band together. After alongwayout ( Dimitri's band ) broke up, they decided to do some sessions. Bart, a former bandmate of Dimitri’s, was invited as well and he brought along Daniel Lakens to play bass. Soon Jeremy was added to the foursome to do the vocals, then after a couple of sessions, all band members decided to look out for new bassplayer. A former bandmate of Jeremy’s, Javier, took the job for two shows, but after that he decided to continue with some of his own projects.
Robert, a friend of Bart’s joined in for a session, and stayed in the position of bass player.
After a couple of succesfull shows, the band moved on without Jeremy and found a new vocalist in Erik.
In 2007 the band recorded a 3 song EP named A day in the flames with Nick Radich of Digitube recording studio.

Sela Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
en leid mij als een kind
dat heel de levensweg
slechts in U richting vindt.
Als mij de moed ontbreekt
om door te gaan,
troost mij dan liefdevol en moedig mij weer aan.
die zuiver is en goed.
Uw woord is onderweg
als een lamp voor mijn voet.
Als mij het zicht ontbreekt,
het donker is,
leid mij dan op uw weg, de weg die eeuwig is.
Heer, leer mij uw wil
aanvaarden als een kind
dat blindelings en stil
U vertrouwt, vrede vindt.
Als mij de wil ontbreekt
uw weg te gaan,
spreek door uw Woord en
Geest mijn hart en leven aan.
Heer toon mij uw plan;
maak door uw Geest bekend
hoe ik U dienen kan
en waarheen U mij zendt.
Als ik de weg niet weet,
de hoop opgeef,
toon mij dat Christus heel
mijn weg gelopen heeft.
The song "Heer wijs mij uw weg" by Sela is a prayer to God asking for guidance and direction. The lyrics express a desire for God to show the way to follow in life, to lead and comfort when courage is lacking, to reveal His will, and to give grace to go where He leads. The first verse speaks of the lifelong journey that the singer is embarking on, hoping to find direction and purpose only through following God's guidance. It also acknowledges that there may be times when we lack the courage to continue on this path, and during such times, the singer asks for God's comfort.
The second verse acknowledges that there may be moments when we lack sight, and the world around us appears to be shrouded in darkness, but even in these times, the lyrics express a trust and hope that God's word will light their way forward. The third verse speaks of surrendering the will, in blind trust to God, accepting His ways as directed by a loving Father. The ultimate request of the prayer is that God show His plan of service, asking for the Holy Spirit's guidance to lead them where they should go.
Overall, the lyrics of "Heer wijs mij uw weg" emphasize the importance of seeking direction, purpose, and comfort from God. They express humility and trust, acknowledging that we may not always have the courage or clarity to move forward but looking to God as a source of light in times of darkness.
