The Corinthian Song
Micah Stampley Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴I am troubled, yet not distressed.
Perplexed, but not in despair.
Cause I'm a vessel full of power,
With a treasure, none can compare.

Persecuted, but not forsaken.
Cast down, but not destroyed.
I'm a vessel full of power

With a treasure, from the Lord.

[Chorus]
I'm a vessel full of power
With a treasure from the Lord.

So thank you father for your power
It has resurrected me.
Oh, the painful circumstances
That my poor soul could not flee.

Bruised and battered but not broken
Brought my sin back, From sin I am free
Cause I am a vessel, got a whole lot of power
With a treasure, delivered me.

[Chorus]

Thank you father
For your power, it has resurrected me.
Oh, the painful circumstances
That my poor soul could not flee.
Oh, oh, oh, oh,

I'm the vessel full of power
With a treasure from the Lord

[Chorus:Repeat x3]
I'm the vessel full of power
With a treasure from the lord

I'm a vessel, you're a vessel full of power
You've got power from the Lord.
I'm a vessel full of power
Treasure from the Lord

I'm a vessel, full of power with a treasure from the Lord.


Overall Meaning

The Corinthian Song by Micah Stampley is a deeply reflective piece about the human experience in the midst of struggle and pain. The lyrics describe the emotions of feeling troubled and perplexed, but also the steadfastness of not giving up in the face of adversity. The idea of being a vessel "full of power" with a treasure "from the Lord" implies a connection to a higher power that enables the singer to endure hardships and overcome challenges.


Despite being persecuted, cast down, bruised, and battered, the singer remains resolute in their faith and grateful for the power that has resurrected them. The chorus repeats the assertion of being a vessel full of power and the acknowledgement of the treasure received from the Lord. The final lines of the song end on a note of encouragement and solidarity with the listener, reminding them that they too are vessels full of power with a treasure from the Lord.


This song can be interpreted as a nod to the biblical book of Corinthians, which talks about finding strength in weakness and the power of God working in us. The idea of being a vessel and having a treasure can also be seen as a metaphor for the Holy Spirit dwelling within us.
