No other Christian song speaks to me like this song. Thousands, and probably millions of Christian songs out there in all sorts of genres. And most of the ones you hear about are always talking about how wonderful it is to be a Christian and how joyous life is. Truly, though, being a Christian is a world of struggle, pain, and desperation. Sure, it has it's ups, but being a pure and righteous person in an un-pure and unrighteous world is the greatest burden one being can take upon themselves. Jesus understood this more than anyone, and He was the ultimate sacrifice for humanity. If people think being a Christian (or Catholic in some cases) means you're life is wonderful and grand, and that Christians are nothing more than brainwashed psychos then they don't know anything. All they know are the ones who participate in actual brainwashing, and the ones who don't know what TRUE Christianity is. Real Christians suffer every day, all the time, and struggle with faith, life and hope in humanity. I know I do. Every day, it's becoming harder and harder for me to follow the footsteps of God, of Christ, but somehow, I just keep going. This song describes perfectly how much we Christians struggle with our faith and how hard it can be to find the strength and faith to keep moving and moving. For me, this song talks about how you cannot let the world dictate your relationship with God. Your relationship is between you and the Lord, and no others, and if you let others come in between that, you will never find peace. That mindset helps me keep going. Never, NEVER let the world tell you this and that, always follow the Lord, and in time, likely a very long time, you will find peace and happiness forever. Keep the faith.
