| Rhema | |
“I don't read it as a historical book. I don't read it as, "Well, that's good advice." I let it speak to me in other ways. They call it the rhema. It's a hard word to translate from Greek, but it sort of means it changes in the moment you're in. It seems to do that for me”.
Bono-Rolling Stone, October 20, 2005
Written For Bono January-2006 Featuring David Mikeal
I love the colors of black and white I know the difference between wrong and right Ah, these words, oh these words, they speak to me There are no gray lines in this life I can see through the darkness with this light These words, oh these words, they warm my soul It’s only rhema It’s my choice to understand It’s only rhema It’s my right to lend a hand It’s my will to live by the meaning within And find all ways to eliminate sin There’s no disclaimer, it’s only rhema |
Time has passed yet these words still live We’re blessed to know what these words can give Oh this message, oh this message, is so clear So I’ll read them over and over again Wherever I am, whatever shape I’m in Oh these words have more power than gold And somehow they keep me, under control It’s only rhema, it’s my choice to understand It’s only rhema, it’s my right to lend a hand It’s my right to live by the meaning within And find all ways to eliminate sin There’s no disclaimer, it’s only rhema It’s only rhema Only rhema
