And hear my beating heart one last time before daylight Ellie Goulding – Beating Heart

That one last night of passion before paths diverge. Her lover’s embrace, their hearts beating as one…Just before they say goodbye. It’s all very tragically romantic. Sound familiar?

A call to a higher power to guide him from the rain. In the Aztec faith, Tlaloc, was the God of rain. Jars of Clay are from Nashville, Tennessee, so it’s doubtful that they are speaking to Tlaloc, but rather a more conventional God, or Jesus.
Jars of Clay has always been a Christian music group. These lyrics are better portrayed as a cry to the God of the Bible for help and comfort, much as are found in the Psalms. There is no need for the reference to the Aztec “god.”

I think it’s crazy to suggest an openly Christian band to be talking to Tlaloc or any other non-Christian deity. The band’s name comes from 2 Corinthians 4:7. This entire song is without a doubt, a prayer to Jesus.

The flood in the bile they write christian songs and songs about there life this is a reference to the flood in the Bible.
