Drakeford - Ruins (CCM)


'Ruins' by Drakeford is a captivating CCM song that delves into the depths of the human condition and the longing for restoration. The lyrics are filled with metaphors and vivid imagery that convey the brokenness inherent in humanity.

The song acknowledges the singer's own flaws and brokenness, recognizing that he has always been tattered and unable to hold himself together. The recurring theme of falling apart emphasizes the universal nature of human brokenness.

Drakeford - RuinsThe chorus draws parallels between personal brokenness and the ruins of ancient civilizations, serving as a reminder that no one is exempt from the fall. Despite this, there is a yearning for restoration, for the Maker to bring forth transformation and restore us to a city on a hill, a place of beauty and hope.

The second verse explores the fear of disappointing those we care about and the vulnerability that comes with growing closer to someone. The bridge introduces the concept of salvation and redemption, with the imagery of lifting hands in worship and the sacrifice of the one sent by God to save.

The song ends on a note of hope, highlighting the power of Jesus Christ to bring life to the ruins. It conveys the belief that even in the midst of brokenness, there is the possibility of restoration and renewal through faith.

'Ruins' offers a reflective and introspective perspective on the human condition and points to the hope found in Christ for redemption and restoration.
