In "The Voice" after the lines "'Cause out on the ocean of life, my love / There's so many storms we must rise above" (at about 1:52), there's an ascending synth phrase (panned left, playing the notes A B C, I think), which musically represents this "ris[ing] above."
The next two lines are "Can you hear the spirit calling / As it's carried across the waves," which seems to take an image from Genesis 1:2: "The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters."
