There are times there are times when I feel like an empty can
There are times when I feel when I feel like superman
In my hell there is a place where the doubt is as hard as stone
Sometimes I feel, you sometimes I don't
I wont give in when I face my demons
Cause your cause your love is real no matter what I feel
There is safety when the darkness finds me
Cause your cause your love is real no matter what I feel
There are days there are days I can face the rising tide
There are days all I want, all I want is to run and hide
In the depths is a truth that is anchoring my soul
No matter if I feel you or if I don't
I wont give in when I face my demons
Cause your cause your love is real no matter what I feel
There is safety when the darkness finds me
Cause your cause your love is real no matter what I feel
Sometimes I live in my own head
And I can barely take in another breath and then you
Remind me what is real is not always what I feel
"No Matter What" by David Dunn is a powerful and uplifting song that speaks to the struggles and doubts we all face in life. It encourages us to hold on to the truth that God's love is real, regardless of how we may feel in the moment.
The song begins with the lyrics, "There are times when I feel like an empty can, there are times when I feel like Superman." These lines capture the contrasting emotions we experience in life. There are moments when we feel strong and capable, like we can conquer anything. But there are also times when we feel empty and weak, doubting ourselves and our abilities.
The next verse continues with, "In my hell there is a place where the doubt is as hard as stone, sometimes I feel you, sometimes I don't." This verse delves deeper into the internal struggles we face. We may find ourselves in difficult situations, feeling overwhelmed by doubt and uncertainty. At times, we may feel God's presence and assurance, but there are also moments when we question if He is there at all.
Despite these doubts and struggles, the chorus of the song reminds us that we should not give in to our demons. It declares, "I won't give in when I face my demons, 'cause your love is real no matter what I feel. There is safety when the darkness finds me, 'cause your love is real no matter what I feel." These lyrics emphasize the unwavering nature of God's love. It doesn't change based on our emotions or circumstances. His love is a constant source of strength and safety, even in our darkest moments.
The theme of God's unchanging love is beautifully captured in several scripture verses. One such verse is Romans 8:38-39, which says, "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." This verse reassures us that nothing can separate us from God's love, no matter how we may feel or what we may face.
Another verse that relates to the theme of the song is Psalm 46:1, which says, "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." This verse reminds us that God is always with us, even in times of trouble. His love provides us with a safe place to turn to and find strength.
"No Matter What" by David Dunn serves as a reminder of the eternal and unchanging love of God. It encourages us to hold on to this truth, even when our emotions and circumstances may try to convince us otherwise. Through its powerful lyrics and uplifting melody, the song inspires us to persevere and trust in the unwavering love of our Heavenly Father.
