Magnetic
Newsboys' song 'Magnetic' is about the persistent, irresistible pull of God's love even when the singer struggles with fear, doubt, and wandering. The lyrics describe a personal battle where worry and heartache try to steal hope, but God's goodness and grace continually draw the singer back. The song emphasizes that God's love is unconditional and patient, never giving up. It uses the metaphor of magnetism and a boomerang to illustrate how God's love relentlessly returns the singer to Him. The message is one of reassurance that no matter how far one strays, God's love and mercy are always pulling them back.
As soon as I open up my eyes
It's the same voice on the inside
Already so heavy
Weighing on my soul
All the fear, all the worry
All the heart ache, all the hurting
Colliding
With your light and
Trying to steal my hope
Some days I break
I lose my way
More doubt than faith
But every time I'm in that fight
Your love keeps pulling me back, pulling me back, it's magnetic
I've pushed away but I can't escape
Your love keeps pulling me back, pulling me back, it's magnetic
Your goodness won't give up on me
It's a fountain flowing so deep
You're so patient and so gracious
It's unconditional
Even when I try to go my own way
Even when my heart is in the wrong place
You bring it back around like a boomerang
Just like a boomerang
'Cause every time I'm in that fight
Your love keeps pulling me back, pulling me back, it's magnetic
I've pushed away but I can't escape
Your love keeps pulling me back, pulling me back, it's magnetic
Like gravity
Just when I think that I'm outta reach
Your love, your mercy keep pulling me
Pulling me
Oh I can feel it, feel it, feel it
It's changing me
No more searching, it's clear to see
Everything that I used to be is history
I can feel it, feel it, feel it
Every time I'm in that fight
Your love keeps pulling me back, pulling me back, it's magnetic
I've tried to pushed away but I can't escape
Your love keeps pulling me back, pulling me back, it's magnetic
Your love keeps pulling me, your love keeps pulling me
Your love keeps pulling me, it's magnetic
Your love keeps pulling me, your love keeps pulling me
Your love keeps pulling me
Your love keeps pulling me, your love keeps pulling me, it's magnetic
Magnetic
Your love keeps pulling me, your love keeps pulling me
Your love keeps pulling me, your love keeps pulling me
