A song

So I've heard this song on the radio a couple of times and I was always thinking how much I liked it and wondering what the name was. Well I figured it out and downloaded it. And every time I listen to it I like it a little more. Not only is the music catchy but there's something about the lyrics that I really love.

The Cave by Mumford & Sons (click here to hear it) 
It's empty in the valley of your heart
The sun, it rises slowly as you walk
Away from all the fears
And all the faults you've left behind

The harvest left no food for you to eat
You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see
But I have seen the same
I know the shame in your defeat

But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again

Cause I have other things to fill my time
You take what is yours and I'll take mine
Now let me at the truth
Which will refresh my broken mind

So tie me to a post and block my ears
I can see widows and orphans through my tears
I know my call despite my faults
And despite my growing fears

But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again

So come out of your cave walking on your hands
And see the world hanging upside down
You can understand dependence
When you know the maker's hand

So make your siren's call
And sing all you want
I will not hear what you have to say

Cause I need freedom now
And I need to know how
To live my life as it's meant to be

And I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck

And I'll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I'll know my name as it's called again


I started to hear the beginning as God speaking that he knows your heart is empty without Him and saying He will always have hope and "won't let you choke" and I think the part that says "I'll find strength in pain and I will change my ways I'll know my name as it's called again" is whoever's answer to God. I don't know...listen to it a few times and maybe you'll understand what I'm trying to say. hah. I just really like the song and wanted to share. I love how music can be interpreted to have so many different meanings to different people. 


It just made me think how amazing it is that God will always be there for me and the things I have to go through are all a part of His plan for me...whether it is painful or joyful.
