Walk With Me
Rev. Johnny L. Jones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let it all go
With no resistance
Time to let go
Let it all go
Move in to the distance
Take me to the mountainside
Take me to the ocean
So I can heal this pain inside
Take me to the river
Take me to the mountainside
Need to feel the ocean
So I can heal the pain
Time to let go
Let it all go
With no resistance
Time to let go
Let it all go
(In to the distance)
Take me to the river
Take me to the mountainside
Take me to the ocean
Mama Africa will hear my cry
Take me to the river
Take me to the mountainside
Take me to the ocean, yeah
Oh I cry
Oh while we meet again
These tears deep inside
Release my
I need to release my
Find some peace of mind
The lyrics to Rev. Johnny L. Jones's "Walk With Me" are a powerful call to release pain, let go of resistance, and move towards inner healing. The repetition of the phrase "time to let go, let it all go" emphasizes the need for the listener to surrender to the journey of processing their emotions. The request to be taken to different natural spaces - the river, the mountainside, and the ocean - reflects a desire to connect with the earth and find solace in its healing power.
The use of "Mama Africa" in the lyrics is significant as it indicates the deep connection the singer has to the African continent and its cultural roots. The cry for help and healing is emphasized in the repetition of the chorus and the admission that tears are deep inside, indicating a vulnerability and openness to the healing process. The lyrics showcase that healing can come from the natural world, and that in order to heal, we must first let go.
