United Pursuit - Seasons Change Lyrics
Lyrics
Though the music changes
And the songs we sing
We still lift our praises to our loving God and King
Though the music changes
And the songs we sing
We still lift our praises to our loving God and King
Though the seasons change
Your love remains
Your love remains
Lord you’ve been faithful to plant the seeds
And you will be faithful to always send your rain
Lord you’ve been faithful to plant the seeds
And you will be faithful to always send your rain
Though the seasons change
Your love remains
Your love remains
Though the seasons change
Your love remains
Your love remains
Though the seasons change
Your love remains
Your love remains
Though the seasons change
Your love remains
Your love remains
When we were far apart
You came running with open arms
When we were far apart
You came running with open arms
When we were far apart
You came running with open arms

Meaning & Inspiration
Released in 2015 as part of their album *Simple Gospel*, United Pursuit's "Seasons Change" is a profoundly resonant anthem that speaks to the enduring nature of divine love amidst the flux of life. The song's narrative is rooted in the foundational Christian understanding of God's unwavering faithfulness, drawing a direct parallel between the cyclical transformations of nature and the constancy of His promises. The core message, that "Your love remains" regardless of shifting circumstances, is not merely a comforting platitude but a theological assertion grounded in biblical truth. The lyrics acknowledge the inevitable changes we experience – whether in the outward forms of worship, represented by "music" and "songs," or in the more profound shifts of life's journey. This acknowledges the human experience of transition, mirroring the wisdom found in Ecclesiastes 3, which speaks of a time for everything under heaven.
However, the song powerfully contrasts this earthly impermanence with the unshakeable character of God. The declaration that "Lord you’ve been faithful to plant the seeds / And you will be faithful to always send your rain" is a beautiful depiction of God's consistent provision and nurturing care. This imagery directly echoes the parables of Jesus, particularly the parable of the sower, illustrating God's active role in initiating and sustaining spiritual growth. It speaks of His promise to bring forth fruit from the lives He touches, much like the rain brings life to the earth. The repetitive, almost liturgical, chorus of "Though the seasons change / Your love remains" functions as a powerful affirmation, reinforcing the immutability of God's love. This steadfastness is the very essence of His covenant with His people, a theme woven throughout scripture from the Old Testament promises to Abraham to the New Testament revelation of Christ’s sacrificial love. The poignant line, "When we were far apart / You came running with open arms," is a direct evocation of the prodigal son narrative found in Luke 15, highlighting God's relentless pursuit and boundless grace, always ready to welcome back those who have strayed. "Seasons Change" offers a spiritual anchor, encouraging listeners to rest their hope not on fleeting earthly experiences, but on the eternal, unchanging love of God.
