I'll Be There
Joyous Celebration Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

when you go through the fire
I'll be right there with you
when you cross the deep waters
I'll hold you in my arms
when it seems it's getting hotter
be not afraid
there's a place you can run to
where's there's peace for your soul

remember there's a promise for you
just be still, hold on
repeat

I'll be there when you call my name
just know you can count on me
I'll hold you in my arms so you won't let go
trust in me, take my hand, just be strong
I'll be there be there for you
this life can be harder
this world can be lonely
you've prayed and prayed for so long
and it seems nobody cares
everything you've done is falling apart
but don't be discouraged
there's a friend who won't leave you
he's faithful and true
you got to hold to his unchanging care

I'll always be there for you

2024 I still listen to this song, it reminds me when my mom was sick and we had nothing in the house i would play this song, and because he says "i'll be there when you call my name" miraculously so he will send someone to give us money or buy us food.

Today I'm a married woman I still listen to this song, whenever I feel down or things don't go accordingly. But I know when I call upon his name he makes a way, his promises are yes and amen 🙏 and he will never leave nor forsake us.
