CCLI number:
7175472
Scripture / biblical anchor:
2 Corinthians 13:14
Service moments: Closing song; benediction; Trinity Sunday; adoption; assurance; gospel-summary services; funeral confidence
Themes: Benediction; Trinity; Adoption; Grace; Gospel assurance; Father; Son; Holy Spirit
Peak observed CCLI rank: #3 Benediction, #4 Adoption, #5 Gospel and #11 Trinity.
Evidence sources: S1, S2, S3, S4, S4b
Interpretive notes: A very strong candidate for a modern congregational benediction: Trinitarian, gospel-shaped, pastoral and suitable as a closing song. It sits naturally beside The Blessing while offering a more explicitly Trinitarian and gospel-summary shape.
Related Worship Songs: The Blessing, Before The Throne Of God Above, Praise The Father, Praise The Son, modern benediction songs

Related Worship Songs: The Power Of The Cross, O Church Arise, In Christ Alone, By Faith, Man Of Sorrows, When I Survey The Wondrous Cross

Evidence sources: S5, S7, U5
Interpretive notes: A song of Christian longing and future fulfilment: present love, joy and peace are real but incomplete signs of what will be fully known in Christ. The It Is Well association should be retained but softened; closer neighbours include Christ Our Hope In Life And Death, There Is A Higher Throne and Abide With Me.

Themes: Weary Christians; church life; cynicism; forgiveness; joy; God’s delight in His people

Evidence sources: KDMusic song page; Louder Than The Music
Interpretive notes: A ministry song rather than a congregational one, based on G.K. Chesterton’s “Do it again” (Orthodoxy, 1908). It asks whether God ever tires of us, and concludes that His love and enthusiasm are relentless: He always rejoices in those who draw close to Him.

Peak observed CCLI rank: No CCLI peak listed.
Evidence sources: KDMusic song page
Interpretive notes: Jesus’ “Do not worry” as a cheerful acoustic blues shuffle (DADGAD, 126 bpm, dobro slide). Best as a ministry song or special item with a soloist, since the verses are wordy and witty; the lyric video is full of animals children love.

Songwriter's notes
Background and intent from KDMusic songwriter Dave Whitcroft.
U3 — Freedom’s Slave context
KDMusic authorial context around the Belfast peace-line setting, The Minstrel Boy melody, violence, intimidation and Christ’s alternative form of power.
U4 — Here We Stand pastoral context
KDMusic authorial context: written in response to multiple tragic bereavements within the church community.
U5 — We Will See authorial interpretation
KDMusic authorial explanation: a C.S. Lewis-like theology of longing; earthly love, joy and peace as real but incomplete anticipations of fulfilment in the Lord.
U6 — Still Only One Way authorial interpretation
KDMusic authorial explanation: angels tag relates to lyrics about false teachers masquerading as angels of light; final verse affirms human dignity and purpose against utilitarian human valuation.
