Should Christian songs have to be in context to be understood as Christian songs?
Topics:Or should the lyrics appeal to the mind, leading an individual to worship as an act of the will? FIDE-O gives the following example:
Collapsing was much softerIs this Christian or not? Is it about Jesus or the writer's girlfriend. Do I search for meaning pragmatically, based upon my unique experience of the music ....
Still falling always hurt
Only after sensing your love
For always ever burned
You justified my folly
My affluent disguise
Removed revealing nothing
Yet nothing unforgiven lies
Unforgiven liesNo one loves me like you
No one loves me the way you do
No one loves me like you
No one loves me the way, the way that you doTo touch the rose unfearful
Is to meet the thorn
And pierce the heart's emotion
And feel the emptiness no more
Emptiness no moreTook some time to realize I've fallen
