I think this song is less about the personification of the tree but rather a representation of how God uses the hardships in our lives to form us into more than we ever thought possible. The oak’s goal was to be the tallest strongest tree in the forest, but because this hardship befell him he spend a hundred years feeling broken and worthless until through the additional hardship and difficulty of being hewn he ended up being taller and stronger than his wildest dreams. It’s similar to “The Tale of The Three Trees”, and I think it’s meant to give hope in the midst of hardship.
matt corby an aussie muso totally amazing, Brother live on triple J or Lonely boy live on triple J. you will be impressed mate
🙏🏼🙏🏼
My 2 cents:
1. Amazing Grace IS being played by the fiddle in the background and references the song/melody sung by the soldier as he was dying.
2. The oak tree, in the beginning, is a young sapling with aspirations/dreams of growing tall and strong. But when the soldier put his heavy rifle on a limb, that, seemingly at the time, stunted its dreams.
3. Because that limb was bowed by the heavy rifle, and it grew that way over the next 100 years, the tree limb grew into a perfect arch for a church bell, when cut off and hewed, ultimately was perched higher than the tree could have ever grown on its own.
4. So many years later, that tree limb is reminded of the song the dying soldier sang each time the congregation sings Amazing Grace.
Moral of the story: just because you may suffer a setback, that does not mean you cannot/will not achieve your dreams. God has a plan, and it is good.
