[I See Things Upside Down] - We Come To You

[-Chris-]

Use this topic to discuss We Come To You from Derek's I See Things Upside Down.

[Yaws]

I for one love this song.  When I first got the album, it was the only song I really liked for a while (until I gave the album a few more listenings; now I love pretty much the whole thing)  It's such a simple song that speaks tons about the humility of Christ and how, becoming one of us, He was still perfect.  "As You came to us, we come to You/Dirty and hurting, and dead in the tomb/Raised redeemed, to show off the scars/because You brought us this far" is probably my favorite line.

I even really like the, give or take, five and a half minute long instrumental outro.  Not many people I know do, but I think it just fits the song incredibly well.

I do find it interesting, however, that it was written by Aaron Tate, when I thought Take To the World was supposed to be his last song.
