Song Meaning of “You Can’t Do That Anymore” by The Crabb Family
This upbeat Christian country-folk song by The Crabb Family speaks to the unique ability of God’s forgive ness when one repents of their sins.
The narrator within the song is the voice of God, reminding us of the many ancient laws and commandments he has laid down that no longer need to be followed, due to the grace and mercy of Jesus. He reminds us that, with our repentance, we are forgiven and that our paths to redemption are now clear.
The chorus exalts God for His abilities and reiterates that there is no limit to His forgiving nature. The narrator concludes that, through Him, we can be made free from our trials and tribulations.
The verses stress that, if we truly repent from our transgressions, then our bondages can be broken and we can be made anew. He warns us against remaining hard hearted and instead reminds us that His love and mercy are infinite and that no one, ever, should be denied His grace and redemption.
At the end of the song, the narrator rejoices that true freedom can be found through the power of humbling ourselves and acknowledging our need for His divine forgiveness.
