RUNNING FROM THE LIGHT | Christian Folk Metal | Lyric Video

Welcome to the lyric video of the Christian folk metal track "Running from the Light." In our fallen state, we have a tendency to "run away from the light" or flee from the presence of God. This can take various forms, but it seems to be a part of the universal human condition. Also, there is no reason to think that Christians manage to be exempt from this tendency. This side of the resurrection, the "old Adam" is still alive and kicking, and therefore, there is an ongoing struggle, even if it is a "seriously joyful struggle" (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKfgLdKdgo0 for more on that topic.)

???? Song lyrics:
Marvel the madness of the human quest,
The drive to banish their creator.
Heart and conscience give in to division,
Chest ripped open for a cheap impostor.

They fortify the temple crest,
Against its true and rightful dweller.
Trading true prophet's vision,
For fate's frivolous fortuneteller.

Running away from law's demand,
To find something less commanding.
Reducing the castle to its sand,
To idolize shallow understanding.

Never bothering to look beyond,
To see who they are standing under.
Just to make the ache of absence stop,
They kill the deeper sense of wonder.

Yet those who let the absence speak,
And proclaim its loudest truth.
May soon find the sense they seek,
As divine light brings its soothe.

????️ How I Make These Music Videos:
All of the music on this channel is made with AI music generation software called Suno. The lyrics are from my poetry. In many cases, I have written the lyrics entirely in the "old-fashioned" way, although in several other songs, I've also begun to use ChatGPT to aid in the process. However, these typically require extensive preliminary inputs and significant manual revision and fine-tuning before satisfactory results. Lyric videos are made with Pinnacle Studio 26.
