For me the song “Son of God” is a statement of faith…I sometimes struggle to see past the sometimes seemingly fairytale-like story of Jesus on the cross and His redemption of mankind. So it goes a long way for me to speak out the truths that I believe deep down in my soul, but often struggle to grasp.
I begin to pick things apart in my head and overanalyze the Legitimacy of the gospel and whether Jesus really was who He said He was. In this place of doubt and unbelief I often find myself simply praying for a childlike faith and a soul that is willing to take God at His word, believing in the grace that he has extended to me through Jesus.
I know that it is impossible for me to have all the answers while I’m on this earth. But the more I surrender my need for answers and my need for control, the more Jesus becomes real to me. To me, this song is a proclamation that says, “Jesus, I believe that you are God, and I stand here with a sometimes weary faith, but faith enough to believe that you have forgiven me and that you loved me enough to die in my place.”
This conscious decision to speak the truth over my life solidifies my faith and trust in God. This state of surrender is when I’m the most free to worship, and I can honestly sing “Jesus, the Son of God, the shaper of the stars, You are worthy of all my praise” - Jon Neufeld of Starfield
