He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end."<br />I loved what you said about the longing for Jesus leading artists to sing about that longing. It's so true. We all have that God shaped hole that nothing but God can fill!<br />Thank you for commenting!

There's a verse (I can't remember where) about eternity being put in the hearts of man. Perhaps that longing for Jesus to fulfill us leads a lot of artists to sing about that longing and being fulfilled except by the wrong things. And maybe because other people have that same longing they are drawn to the songs.

Yeah, I'm not 100% sure that the song wasn't written about Jesus being our flashlight, but given who it was written by a pop singer, I highly doubt it was! It's similar to lots of songs people sing. You know, about love in our society.
