    *Oh*
    I had to listen to this song a few times to grasp the meaning. I believe that the man in the story is Jesus bringing His Bride "grays". And as someone else in the comments said, "grays = grace". Wow. Love the message of this song.

    Gray is good for sorrow ... so necessary for processing grief, repentance, and depression. Denying it for the sake of false color is superficial. Thank you for reminding us!

      @@adammcneil242 I think that both messages are VERY relevant. "Grays" certainly does equal "grace" but the fact that the color gray is also good for helping us process messy emotions is a beautiful aspect of this song and a lovely reminder of what our Savior can do.

    The girl in the grey, is the only girl who acknowledges that this life isn't "perfectly color coded" she sees the shades of grey they want to ignore... and she is happiest because through acknowledging the grey, she can know grace. Is... is that the point? You have to acknowledge sin to receive forgiveness, and you have to accept rejection to know love. Her flowers were grey, but they came from Love.

    • @matthiaschan2293
      @matthiaschan2293 3 года назад +1

      I feel the meaning of the song is rather that she feels that in a world of work-to-earn or achieve-to-receive, she notices that something really important is missing: grace. The opposite of being righteous from our own deeds. A gift. Self righteous people and non-Christians in general can't stand the mentioning of grace because it takes away from their pride. It takes away all of our pride if we'd fully understand.
      The bride seeks this grace and Jesus gave it to her freely. That's why he was killed by the people.

      @@matthiaschan2293 No, no, silly. This isn't about the girl or you or me. It's about Jesus! The song begins to unfold in a place that had no grays (grace) allowed (this is 1st century Jerusalem or thereabouts) and found the church (the girl not worth thinking of). He brought her gray flowers every day (this is the work of Jesus preaching the gospel and repentance all made possible through grace). "They" (unbelieving jews) saw her in a dress that was gray and red (she's clothed in the grace (and blood?) of Jesus) and they knew it matched (the grace yielded good fruit) and some were happy some enraged. They went and threatened him with death, etc., etc.
