Spirit Lead Me (feat. Michael Ketterer)

The song 'Spirit Lead Me' by Influence Music, featuring Michael Ketterer, is a heartfelt expression of surrender and trust in a higher spiritual power. The lyrics convey a deep sense of devotion and a willingness to follow the guidance of the Spirit, which is often interpreted as the Holy Spirit in a Christian context. The song is a worship anthem that speaks to the experience of letting go of personal control and allowing faith to dictate one's actions and decisions.

Throughout the song, the lyrics emphasize the act of submission to the Spirit's will. Phrases like 'If You say it's wrong, then I'll say no' and 'If You say to trust, I will obey' highlight the singer's commitment to obedience and the relinquishing of their own desires and plans. This theme of obedience is coupled with the acknowledgment of the struggles and doubts that come with faith, as seen in lines like 'Even when I can't see it' and 'Even in suffering, I have to believe it.' The song suggests that true worship involves trust and perseverance, even when the path is unclear or difficult.

The latter part of the song shifts to a more personal reflection on the transformative power of faith. The singer recognizes that their life is an offering, an 'altar' where the divine can work. The imagery of water from the rock and the cup that the singer is given to drink from alludes to biblical narratives and symbolizes the nourishment and challenges that faith provides. Ultimately, 'Spirit Lead Me' is a declaration of the singer's decision to stop 'chasing feelings' and instead, to seek guidance and purpose through a spiritual connection.
