Into The Unknown
Anthem Lights' cover of "The Unknown" reimagines the Disney song as a metaphor for spiritual calling and the tension between comfort and obedience. The lyrics describe a person hearing a persistent voice, resisting it out of fear of leaving familiar surroundings, yet feeling drawn to something greater. The song captures the internal struggle of surrendering to God's call, acknowledging that following Him means risking the known for the unknown. It resonates with themes of faith, trust, and the desire to step into God's purpose despite uncertainty.
I can hear you but I won't
Some look for trouble while others don't
There's a thousand reasons I should go about my day
And ignore your whispers which I wish would go away, oh oh oh
Ah ah oh oh
Oh oh
Ah ah oh oh
You're not a voice
You're just a ringing in my ear
And if I heard you, which I don't
I'm spoken for I fear
Everyone I've ever loved is here within these walls
I'm sorry, secret siren, but I'm blocking out your calls
I've had my adventure, I don't need something new
I'm afraid of what I'm risking if I follow you
Into the unknown
Into the unknown
Into the unknown
Ah ah oh oh
What do you want? 'Cause you've been keeping me awake
Are you here to distract me so I make a big mistake?
Or are you someone out there who's a little bit like me?
Who knows deep down I'm not where I'm meant to be?
Every day's a little harder, I can feel your power grow
Don't you know that there's part of me that longs to go
Into the unknown
Into the unknown
Into the unknown
Oh oh oh
Are you out there?
Do you know me?
Can you feel me?
Can you show me?
Ah ah oh oh
Ah ah oh oh
Ah ah oh oh
Ah ah oh oh
Ah ah oh oh
Ah ah oh oh
Where are you going?
Don't leave me alone
How do I follow you
Into the unknown?
