Perfect Love
Sierra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm always faced with yet another test
A chance to follow, a chance to lead
A chance to fall or to stand gracefully
Gracefully
Sometimes I'd rather turn and run away
But it's better if I learn to stand and pray
To remember that I always need to seek Your...
Perfect love
That finds me empty
And fills me up
'Til I can't get enough
Of the mercy and grace
That comes from a touch
Of Your perfect love
(That comes from a face
Such a beautiful face)
Round and round and round the circle goes
And where it stops nobody knows
'Cause we give His love away
God restores our hearts every day with His...
Sierra's song Perfect Love is all about embracing life and its many tests, challenges and opportunities with grace and positivity. The lyrics capture the essence of the idea that no matter how confusing and difficult life may seem, the knowledge that one is always surrounded by God's perfect love is enough to make it through the toughest times. The song encourages the listener to seek this perfect love, which can fill up even the emptiest and most hurting of hearts.
The opening lines of the song paint a picture of the unpredictable nature of life, which often presents us with new tests and opportunities without warning. Sierra acknowledges that it can all seem like a "crazy mess", but reminds the listener that every challenge is a chance to grow, learn, and be a source of inspiration for others. Instead of shying away from these tests, the song encourages the listener to "stand and pray" and seek God's help in times of weakness.
The most compelling part of Perfect Love is the way it prioritizes the importance of love, mercy, and grace in our lives. Sierra reminds us that it is only through perfect love that we can truly experience the "mercy and grace" that can come from God's touch. The realization that this perfect love comes from such a beautiful face is a nod to Christ, who is often described as the embodiment of the divine love that so many seek. In essence, the song urges us to look to Christ as the ultimate source of strength, comfort, and guidance when things get tough.
