I CAN'T DENY - ( Romans 5:1-5, Psalm 91 & 2nd Corinthians 1:3-5). It is a powerful anthem, about how our faith grows during the storms or trials in our lives, when we hold onto Him, which draws us closer to Him at the same time. Notice in the second Chorus lyrics, the emphasis switches from referring to the Lord in third person, to a direct personal relationship with Jesus.
The opening musical introduction paints a picture of a swirling wind, using an electric guitar, joined by electric, synthesized keyboard, building in sound, supported by interesting bongo rhythms and drum. Verses written in a minor key. Chorus is written in a major key. Vocals are expressive and gripping.
My world is floating now
like leaves in the fall
so many things that I
don't understand at all.
Ouu, I feel a change comin'
down here tonight,
I'm movin' but there are
only shadows in sight.
Chorus:
Still,
I can't deny
who's strong, the stars in the sky, and I,
I won't let go of His hand, no.
I will not fear,
cause I know, I know who stands with me here, and I,
I can't deny
its his life and his sky,
I can't deny, yeah.
I set my heart like a white flag in the wind.
And hold on to Him
through the thick and the thin.
I've been alone now,
but I will not know, yeah,
I will be strong
standing on this truth....
Chorus
So in this time,
I will align
with the One I can't deny...
Chorus 2:
I can't deny,
You're strong, the stars in the sky, and I,
I won't let go of Your hand, no.
I will not fear,
cause I know, I know You stand with me here, and I,
I can't deny
it's Your life
and Your sky,
I can't deny...
