The Soul Journey: Favorite Spiritual U2 Lyrics
I realize that this should go in 'It's a Musical Journey', but I believe it is very relevant in this forum as well. Sort of a musical journey of the soul. So what is your favorite spiritual lyric and why it has touched you the way it has?
So, my favorite lyric for the soul journey has to be from 'A Sort of Homecoming'
And you know it's time to go
Through the sleet and driving snow
Across the fields of mourning
Light in the distance.
I've always been drawn to these words because of the determination and fortitude of walking on through the sleet and driving snow which seems to speak of journeying on through the troubles and problems of life through fields of mourning, the death of things, of people, of relationships we once shared, to a light in the distance, to a better place then what our eyes now behold, the light of God's radiance, where we find the greatest of beauty, tranquility, healing...with no more tears, no more pain.
This song is filled with so much spiritual imagery, and it was so hard to pick just one from this song. I look forward to hearing from others about their favorite spiritual U2 lyrics.
