Carried Away
Sonic Flood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You are the only hope I have
The reason in my reason
The only thing that lasts
How could I begin to settle
When all within me longs
To step into the shelter
Of your everlasting arms
I want to get carried away
I want to get tossed by your waves
I don't care where or how deep
I'm gonna jump in with both feet
I want to get carried away
I want to get lost in your ways
I want to be held by your truth
I want to behold all of you
I'm gonna be all yours today
I want to get carried away
You are the wisdom of the ages
You are the one who stays the same
The power in the wind
The sun left by the rain
How could I begin to make it
If all I had was me
Just take me as I am Lord
And sweep me out to sea.
Some say You're far away
But I know You're here with me
I could go anywhere
And still you'd be there with me
I know You're here with me.
The lyrics to Sonic Flood's song "Carried Away" are a plea to God for freedom and hope. The singer acknowledges that God is the only thing that truly lasts and offers shelter to those who seek it. The longing for God is depicted as a desire to be carried away by His presence, to jump in with both feet and get lost in His ways. The singer recognizes God's unchanging nature as a source of wisdom and power in their life, and begs to be swept away by His love.
The song is a testament to the power of faith and the desire to connect with something greater than oneself. The lyrics express a deep emotional yearning for a spiritual connection, and illustrate the comfort and security that can be found through faith. The desire to be "carried away" speaks to a longing for transcendence and finding meaning in a world that can often feel chaotic and overwhelming. The song is a hopeful and uplifting reminder that even in the face of uncertainty, there is hope and redemption to be found through faith.

You are the open door to freedom
You are the only hope I have
The reason in my reason
The only thing that lasts
How could I begin to settle
When all within me longs
To step into the shelter

I want to get carried away
I want to get tossed by your waves
I don't care where or how deep

I want to be held by your truth
I want to behold all of you
I'm gonna be all yours today
