Josh Garrels' song reflects on human weakness and God's sovereignty, drawing from the biblical story of Job. The lyrics acknowledge that all human efforts can fall apart, but God remains strong. References to Leviathan and Sheol evoke Old Testament imagery of chaos and death. The song asks whether one will curse or bless God's name when trials come, echoing Job's response to suffering. It emphasizes that God gives and takes away, and that trials refine faith like fire. The overall tone is one of humble surrender and trust in God's purposes, even when circumstances are difficult.
All my love, all I?ve done
Falls apart, is undone
Built a tower; You tore it down
I am weak; You are strong
Who can tame Leviathan?
Mouth of Sheol sings a lonely song
Yahweh gives and takes away
Will you curse or bless the name?
Trial tests us like the flame
