I'll Live Again
Beres Hammond Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Giving praises, Father, only You gonna love me
If this world should let me down
Only You can I sing to, if the audience not around
Life has no meaning if everyone donβ€²t care
Don't have to talk to You for You to hear, woah
Youβ€²re never on a mission, too busy for Your son
Don't have to say a word, You feel me to the bone
Let me through on earth and yes, I had my fill
And up till this time You're the best friend I have
And I know Iβ€²ll live again, Iβ€²ll live again
Over test that they give I will forgive
'Cause I know Iβ€²ll live again
Over trials and tribulations that I've been through
I know Iβ€²ll live again
So take one day at a time, some of us are slow to learn
And You're such a good teacher, ooh, Youβ€²re so concerned
'Cause after every lesson You take time for revision
Always You know who is too slow
And You take the time to let him grow
Who is that Man that peeps down deep within my soul?
Who is that Man that follows me down rough and rocky road?
I ask the question and until now I just can't believe
Thereβ€²s such a Man who cares for everyone still stretches out His hand
Iβ€²ll live again, I'll live again
Over test that they give I will forgive
β€²Cause I know I'll live again
For the trials and tribulations that Iβ€²ve been through, yes
I'll sing praises on to You
And I want my little folks around to do exactly what I do
Sing, highest praises on to You
Praise in my rejections and trails, woah
Letβ€²s go and take one day at a time, some of us are slow to learn
And You're such a good teacher, ooh, always so concerned
'Cause after every lesson You take the time for revision
And always You know who is too slow
And You take the time to let him grow
Who is that Man that peeps down deep within my soul?
Who is that Man sacrifices for young and the old?
I ask the question and until now I canβ€²t believe
Thereβ€²s such a Man who cares for everyone still believes in me
I'll live again, Iβ€²ll live again, yes
In my trials and tribulations I know I'll live again
Oh, You let me through on earth and yes, I had my fill
And up till this time Youβ€²re still the best friend I made
And I know I, I will live again
Oh, by the mercy of You, I know I'll live again
Oh, You do me what You wanna do
Oh, I, yeah, yeah, Iβ€²ll live again




I believe, so I know, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I
Help me, 'cause I know I'll live again
