The Flood
The World Organization of the Righteous Movement [W.O.R.M.] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why are you troubled here within me?
Deep inside my heart, my soul, what's wrong?
So my God I do not see why You forgive me
Do You need me? Am I wise? Am I strong?
So Why, so why, so why, so why?
Why do You even love me?
Why should You think of me?
Oh my God, I'll never know. It's
Unconditional love, Unconditional love, Unconditional love,
The grace flood
Take my hand and lead me further up within here
Deep inside Your heart, With in your soul
On my knees as I crawl steady up the incline
The glory of Your face and I can't stand.
The lyrics of The Flood by W.O.R.M. are a call for introspection and self-examination. The singer addresses their own soul, questioning why they are troubled and why they feel undeserving of forgiveness and love from God. The repetition of the phrase "so why" emphasizes the singer's confusion and uncertainty.
The chorus of the song answers these questions with the idea of "unconditional love," which is described as a "grace flood" that the singer can't fully comprehend. The second verse shifts to a plea for guidance and a desire to be closer to God, with the singer asking to be led "further up within here" and "deep inside Your heart."
Overall, the lyrics of The Flood highlight the complexity and mystery of faith, with the singer wrestling with doubts and fears but ultimately finding comfort in the idea of divine love.
