Carry Me Away

CARRY ME AWAY (BEHIND THE SONG)

The song addresses how one is carried away by another. When we get to know others sometimes there is that person that just carries us away by their beautiful qualities. Have you ever met someone that was not very pleasant looking physically but as you got to know them even the negative characteristics became more pleasant. Then we get carried away by their lovely personality. How would you feel about a person that  it is said the he is very tender in affection and merciful. And also said to be the very personification of love. Or has the qualities of patience, kindness, goodness, mildness and self-control. Would we not be drawn to such a person and be carried away by their very presence and association? It is stated in Galatians 5:22 , “, the fruitage of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, mildness, self-control”. What Spirit is being spoken of here?  It is the power God has to produce these qualities in other persons because he has to the perfect degree in himself. He is spoken of as not only having love but being love as stated in 1John 4:8 and 16, “GOD IS LOVE”. And James 5:11 states that Jehovah, “is very tender in affection and merciful”. Is not one carried away by such a Creator. That is why the song declares , ‘I am always thinking of you , it’s the most beautiful thing I do’. Yes we sometimes meet someone that just carries us away and has developed lovely qualities but the song also is pictorial in that it especially focuses the originator of all these magnificent traits and THAT carries us away!
