I felt the same exact way after I heard the song the first few times. I just wanted to give him a hug and thank him for creating yet another beautiful song.

Speak every man truth one with another for we are members one of another...and give alms of the inside as well as putting up a pretty front...couple of bible verses that come to mind...a little "translated"...

Those poor bashers, they do not understand Stapp...I understand them though...I have wanted to bash a few religious zealots...who were so heartless in their zeal for God...Stapp is not heartless...he feels deeply for people, people generally, not just those who are "holy".

Very very very catchy song indeed... I went to go shopping today and found myself hymn the song over and over again...

:note: "...to relearn looove...
Teach me all over, all over
To relearn looove...
Show me again..." :note:

I'm quite affraid of too catchy sounding songs to be honest... they will bore quicker IMO...

In some parts he even reminds me of Elton John... Don't know if that's a good or a bad thing hahaha... I didn't like the kind of "echoing" of his voice though (if you know what I mean?)

But... Like to hear mooooooore!!!! :D
It sure was great to hear our beloved Scott again! :syncdance

ok, it is obvious who this song is about. there is no doubt it is about Jesus, the ONE who gave the greatest gift of all. He died for our sins, and set us free for eternal life with the Father. i dont see any question that it would be about anyone else

I hear you can hear it on AOL now without being a member..

And I had a few things to say about what I liked in the lyrics:

A few quick points that are so original...so many artists talk about Love and how essential it is, but Stapp always has an original twist...



First RE-learn Love, as if you did know it...I was alive once as a child, a bible idea along that line.



And then relearn MY love, as each person has a Peculiar Manifestation of Love...we are not all called to be/act the same...it's a little scary being your real self...when each of us is a Person rather than "sheep"...



And then "relearn"...all that has been devastated can be recreated, same idea...hope against hope, always always continue in HOPE...new mercies every morning, never say die, never never NEVER, at the end of your rope tie a knot in it and hang on...

And then..."your tender hands caress my head", well that picture it is HIS OWN HANDS CARESSING HIS HEAD...

And it's "scriptural" too...it is god that worketh in you to will and to do...Phil 2.

In a sense we "save ourselves" when we wake up..."open our eyes", maybe I better go listen to AB now, lol...

But made himself of no reputation and took up on the form of a serveant and was made in in the likeness of men. Became obedient :jam: unto death of the cross Wherefore God Also hath highly Exalted him and given Him A Name which is above every name that is the name of jesus christ every knee should bow of things in heaven and things under earth And that every tounge should confess that jesus christ is lord I Love This Song!!!! haha :jam: :jam:

Ok..,,,St john 14. verse 25 and st john 16 verse 32 :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :jam :jam: :jam:

I also like that line, "when your world is standing still..."

The real world TURNS...from night to Day...(and around and around)...so you never ought to really DESPAIR...but sometimes people lose hope...and seem to be stuck in permanent darkness...

so listen, feel it...drop and kneel...then rise take up your bed and WALK LIKE A MAN...OR A SON...A Lover.

:jam: :jam: :jam:
