The Voice
Spirit of Truth Lyrics

Oh what I would do to have The kind of faith it takes to climb out of this boat I'm in Onto the crashing waves To step out of my comfort zone To the realm of the unknown where Jesus is And He's holding out his hand
The song starts with the singer wishing for the kind of faith that can get him out of his comfort zone and take him to the unknown, where Jesus is holding out his hand.

But the waves are calling out my name and they laugh at me Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed The waves they keep on telling me Time and time again, "Boy, you'll never win!" You'll never win"
Despite Jesus holding out his hand, the singer is discouraged by the waves that remind him of his past failures and keep telling him that he will never win.

But the voice of truth tells me a different story And the voice of truth says, "Do not be afraid!" And the voice of truth says, "This is for My glory" Out of all the voices calling out to me I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth
Despite the discouragement, the singer believes in the voice of truth that tells him not to be afraid and reminds him that his actions are for God's glory. He decides to listen to and believe in the voice of truth over all other voices.

Oh what I would do to have The kind of strength it takes to stand before a giant With just a Sling and a stone Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors Shaking in their armor Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand
The singer wishes for the kind of strength that can enable him to face a giant with just a sling and a stone, surrounded by warriors who are too afraid to fight.

But the giant's calling out my name and he laughs at me Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed The giant keeps on telling me Time and time again, "Boy, you'll never win!" You'll never win"
Just like the waves, the giant also discourages the singer by reminding him of his past failures and telling him that he will never win.

But the voice of truth tells me a different story And the voice of truth says, "Do not be afraid!" And the voice of truth says, "This is for My glory" Out of all the voices calling out to me (Calling out to me) I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth
Despite the giant's discouragement, the singer decides to listen to and believe in the voice of truth that tells him not to be afraid and that his actions are for God's glory.

But the stone was just the right size To put the giant on the ground And the waves they don't seem so high From on top of them looking down I will soar with the wings of eagles When I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus Singing over me
The singer realizes that he has what it takes to defeat the giant and overcome the waves. He realizes that when he listens to the sound of Jesus, he can soar like an eagle and the waves don't seem high from the top.

But the voice of truth tells me a different story And the voice of truth says, "Do not be afraid!" And the voice of truth says, "This is for My glory" Out of all the voices calling out to me I will choose to listen and believe
Again, the singer chooses to believe in the voice of truth that tells him not to be afraid and assures him that his actions are for God's glory, over all other voices.

I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth I will listen and believe I will listen and believe the voice of truth I will listen and believe Because Jesus you are the voice of truth And I will listen to you You are...
The song ends with the singer reiterating his commitment to listen and believe in the voice of truth, which is Jesus, and his decision to turn away from all other voices that discourage him and remind him of his past failures.
