Slain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To show forth the light into the dark!
He gives me the strength to stand and fight
And nail the enemy in his eyes!
When the walls are crashing in and out
And there's no place to hide-
Surrounded by all my foes
Now there's a greater power that fights;
You hear the thunder when you call His name
There's lightning when you call his name
He wont bring you shame, there's power and light!
Lyrics property of Slain as part of Here & Beyond (2010)
The above lyrics convey a message of faith, hope, and strength in the face of adversity. The singer acknowledges that he has been made a soldier in a war, which could either be literal or metaphorical. This war is characterized by darkness, where the enemy reigns supreme. However, the singer draws his strength from a higher power, which enables him to stand firm and fight back against the enemy. He is determined to confront the enemy head-on, and he is not afraid to look him in the eye.
The lyrics also talk about a time when the singer is surrounded by his enemies, and there seems to be no way out. This could represent a hopeless or challenging situation that he finds himself in, where he is seeking ways to escape or hide. However, he acknowledges that there is a greater power that fights on his behalf, as long as he calls upon it. The thunder and lightning that are mentioned are symbols of power and awe, and they represent the power that God has to vanquish the enemy. In this way, the singer encourages listeners to hold on to their faith, even when things seem impossible.

He's made me a soldier in the war
I am a warrior in this spiritual battle
To show forth the light into the dark!
My mission is to spread the light in a world full of darkness
He gives me the strength to stand and fight
God gives me the power to be courageous and fight
And nail the enemy in his eyes!
I will confront and take down the adversary with great determination
When the walls are crashing in and out
In challenging times, everything seems to be collapsing
And there's no place to hide-
There's seemingly no escape from the struggles and chaos
Surrounded by all my foes
I face opposition from all sides
Finding reasons to escape and hide
I am desperately searching for a way out, feeling helpless
Now there's a greater power that fights;
There is a mighty force that supports my battle
You hear the thunder when you call His name
When you pray, you feel the authority and strength of God
There's lightning when you call his name
His power is displayed through the miraculous events that happen when we call on Him
He wont bring you shame, there's power and light!
God never lets us down; His strength and light is always there to support us
