Let It Be
Ferry Aid Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

And when the broken hearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted
There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be, Let it be, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be, Let it be, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be

And when the night is cloudy
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow, let it be
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be, Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

Let it be, let it be, Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be
Let it be, let it be, Let it be, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be




Let it be, let it be, Let it be, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Ferry Aid’s song Let It Be have spiritual undertones that offer comfort during troubled times. The opening line “When I find myself in times of trouble” invokes a sense of vulnerability and powerlessness, and this is where the singer turns to Mother Mary for solace. Mother Mary is often associated with compassion and tenderness, and her presence offers hope and healing to the singer. The phrase “Speaking words of wisdom, let it be” suggests that the advice given by Mother Mary is not just any ordinary advice, but rather, it is infused with divine knowledge and insight.


In the next verse, the song takes on a broader perspective by acknowledging that there are “broken-hearted people living in the world.” This phrase suggests that the singer is not alone in their struggles, and there are others who are equally struggling to find meaning and purpose in their lives. Despite the hardships, there is still hope for redemption, and the phrase “There will be an answer, let it be” offers reassurance that there is a way out of the darkness.


The final verse offers a sense of optimism as the singer awakens to the sound of music and Mother Mary once again comes to offer words of wisdom. The phrase “There is still a light that shines on me” suggests that even in the darkest moments, there is still hope and something to hold onto. The repetition of the phrase “let it be” throughout the song is a reminder to surrender to fate and accept things as they are, rather than trying to control every aspect of life.
