Love Lifted Me
Hezekiah Walker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm glad that Jesus came my way
picked me up and turned me around
then He placed my feet on a higher ground
Love lifted me
love lifted me
There is something I want to say
that I remember when He came my way
with a tender hand, He lifted me
then He turned around and gave victory
Love lifted me
love lifted me
When nothing else could help
When nothing else could help
Love lifted
it lifted
Love lifted me
Love lifted me
In "Love Lifted Me," Hezekiah Walker expresses his gratitude for Jesus' love and how it has transformed his life. He begins by acknowledging that there is something important he wants to share - the fact that he is thankful for Jesus' presence in his life. He then goes on to describe how Jesus picked him up when he was down, turned him around, and put him on a higher plane. This alludes to the idea of salvation and how belief in Jesus can help a person transcend their earthly troubles.
He repeats the chorus twice, emphasizing the phrase "Love lifted me." This emphasizes the idea that the power of love, especially divine love, can have a transformative effect on a person's life. In the second verse, he reflects on the moment when he encountered Jesus and how the Lord used a gentle touch to pick him up. He then describes how Jesus gave him the victory over his troubles, perhaps referring to the idea that belief in Jesus can provide a sense of peace and relief.
The final verse repeats the chorus, and ends with the line "When nothing else could help" repeated twice. This reinforces the idea that Jesus' love is supreme, and that there are times when earthly solutions fall short in providing lasting help.
