One Safe Soul
Josh Wilson's song "One Safe Soul" is a tender love song that celebrates the security and acceptance found in a committed relationship. The lyrics express gratitude for a partner who stands by through difficult times, seeing one's flaws yet choosing to stay. Wilson draws a parallel between this human love and the love of God, suggesting that being fully known and still loved removes fear. The song emphasizes themes of faithfulness, vulnerability, and the comfort of having a safe person, while subtly pointing to divine love as the ultimate source of security.
I can face unthinkable things
As long as you face them with me.
And I could take the world's worst news
As long as I get to come home to you.
And baby, you show me
The love of God.
And love is never blind,
You see all the wrongs
I try to hide.
But you stay right by my side
When all the world does not.
You're the one safe soul I've got.
Man's greatest fear is being alone,
And his second greatest is being known.
But if you are both known and loved,
You got nothing left to be scared of.
Oh baby, you show me
That love is never blind,
You see all the wrongs
I try to hide.
But you stay right by my side
When all the world does not.
You're the one safe soul I've got.
You are solace in the storm,
You are rest when I am worn,
You are words when I can't speak,
You are song when I can't sing.
Oh love is never blind,
You see all the wrongs
I try to hide.
But you stay right by my side
When all the world does not.
You're the one safe soul I've got.
