Rend Collective's song 'True North' is a declaration of faith and resolve to keep joy and trust in God despite life's difficulties. The lyrics express a refusal to let darkness, circumstances, fear, or failure dictate one's feelings or identity. Instead, the singer chooses to stand on God's love and forgiveness, following Him wholeheartedly. The metaphor of a 'true north' emphasizes God as a constant, reliable guide. The song encourages believers to anchor their emotions and decisions in God's unchanging character rather than shifting situations.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I will not let the darkness steal the joy within my soul

I will not let my circumstance become my compass, no

I will not let the fears of life and sorrows of this world

Dictate to me how I should feel for You are my true north


Oh, You are my true north

Oh, You are my true north


I will not let my failures turn into the curse of shame

I will not walk beneath the clouds that taunt me and condemn

For I will stand on solid ground the shadow of Your love

Forgiven, changed, a heart renamed for You are my true north


I will follow You into the dark

You are my true north

I will follow You with all my heart

You are my true north
