My Saving Grace
Mariah Carey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But, at least I know where I can turn
When I'm in my times of need
Just as long
(As I know all things are possible)
Just as long as I believe
I've loved a lot, hurt a lot
Been burned a lot in my life and times
Spent precious years wrapped up in fear
With no end in sight
Until my saving grace shined on me
Until my saving grace set me free
Giving me peace
Giving me strength when I'd
Almost lost it all
Catching my every fall
I still exist because you keep me safe
I found my saving grace within you
Yes, I've been bruised
Grew up confused
Been destitute
I've seen life from many sides
Been stigmatized
Been black and white
Felt inferior inside
Until my saving grace shined on me
Until my saving grace set me free
Giving me peace
Giving me strength when I'd
Almost lost it all
Catching my every fall
I still exist because you keep me safe
I found my saving grace within you
And the bountiful things that you do
Lord thank you
For delivering me
And giving me peace
Giving me strength
Giving me hope when I'd
Almost lost it all
Catching my every fall
I still exist because you keep me safe
Always my saving grace
Pulls me through
I found my saving grace within you
(Yes you are, you're my every, everything)
Within you
(Only, only you)
Yes lord
(Only you)
My saving grace lord is
You
The song "My Saving Grace" by Mariah Carey is a powerful interpretation of the singer's life experiences and the idea of finding redemption and hope in a higher power. In the first verse, Mariah acknowledges that she still has much to learn in life, but feels secure in the knowledge that there is always somewhere she can turn in times of need. This is a common theme in spiritual and religious teachings, and highlights the idea of seeking guidance and strength from a source outside of oneself. Mariah then emphasizes the importance of belief, suggesting that as long as she believes that all things are possible, she can overcome any obstacle.
The second verse delves deeper into Mariah's personal struggles, referencing past trauma, fear, and feelings of inferiority. However, she also speaks of her "saving grace," which has shined on her and given her the strength and peace to carry on. This saving grace is specifically described as coming from a higher power or deity, as Mariah expresses gratitude to the Lord for his deliverance. Finally, the chorus reiterates the idea that it is this saving grace which has sustained Mariah in the darkest times, catching her when she falls, preserving her life, and providing a sense of hope.
Overall, "My Saving Grace" is a poignant reminder of the power of faith, hope, and resilience in the face of life's challenges. Mariah's personal lyrics and heartfelt delivery make this a standout track in her discography, and its message is sure to resonate with anyone who has ever felt lost or hopeless.
