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 ↴
komt bij ons wonen als mens heel dichtbij.
Wie had durven dromen, wie had dit geloofd?
De Verlosser wordt mens zoals wij.
Zo stond het geschreven, zo is het beloofd;
een redder is gekomen, brengt iedereen hoop!
Gloria, gloria klinkt in de nacht.
Gloria zingt heel het engelenkoor.
Ere zij God! Het lied klinkt in stilte nog door.
Jezus de hoop voor een wereld in nood,
komt in ons wonen en blijft voor altijd.
Wie heeft ons de weg naar de Vader getoond?
Jezus, redder die ons heeft bevrijd.
Zo stond het geschreven, zo is het beloofd;
een Redder is gekomen, brengt iedereen hoop!
Gloria, gloria klinkt in de nacht.
Een boodschap van vrede op aarde gebracht.
Gloria zingt heel het engelenkoor;
ere zij God! Het lied klinkt de eeuwen nog door
Heer, ik ben dankbaar voor wat u mij geeft.
U bent mijn leven, mijn licht in de nacht.
Leven oneindig is wat U mij geeft;
U bent meer dan ik ooit had verwacht.
The lyrics of Sela's "Zo is het beloofd" speak of the promise of Jesus coming to the world as a human, and the hope and peace that he brings to humanity. The song starts by referencing the prophecy of Jesus' coming, as a promise to the world. The song then goes on to note the miraculous nature of Jesus' arrival, as someone who would come to live among humans, just like us. This is something that had been promised, but still seems almost too good to be true.
The chorus of "Gloria, gloria" speaks of the angels bringing a message of peace to the world in the form of a song. This is the message of hope that Jesus brings, a message that the angels proclaimed in their song to the shepherds in the fields on the night of his birth. The chorus repeats the "Gloria" refrain, emphasizing the importance of this message of peace and hope.
The second verse speaks of Jesus as the hope for a world in need. He comes to live among us and shows us the way to the Father. The verse highlights that Jesus has freed us from our sins and has given us lasting hope by his presence among us. The chorus repeats the message of hope brought to us by Jesus, and emphasizes that this message has been proclaimed throughout the ages.
Overall, the song "Zo is het beloofd" is a song of hope and peace, telling the story of Jesus' miraculous arrival and message of redemption. It is a song that reminds us that Jesus brings hope to a hurting world, and that his message has the potential to change lives.
