Help Me
Tamela Mann Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Help Me
(Verse 1)
You ever find your self in a place
That you don't know what to say
The things I depended on were gone
I realized I couldn't do it on my own
I used to want to understand your plan
Now all I want to see your hand.
My heart is open so wide
Even though there's so much pain inside.

CHORUS:
As I'm on this journey I need you to
Help me, Help me, Help me to finish well
And I know I'll be alright if you
Help me, Help me, Help me to finish well

(Verse 2)
When I'm tired of the load that I must bare, You let me know that Your right there
Because you're my strength for my weakness
Your my words when I'm speechless
God give me faith to see where you're taking me
So even when I'm afraid I still believe
Please listen to the pain in prayer
Let me know your paying attention and you cares

(CHORUS)
As I'm on this journey I need you to
Help me, Help me, Help me to finish well
And I know I'll be alright if you
Help me, Help me, Help me to finish well





(VAMP)
Don't give up Cause help is on the way

Help Me
When I lost both of my parents a few years ago.
This was the only song that kept me, from jumping into their graves this morning.
I miss both of my parents every day.
My mom died from Uterine Cancer (October-2012)
My dad had a massive stroke (June-2014)
My parents both met in the 9th grade, and they got married after my dad came home from Vietnam War in 1968.
My oldest son dad died in Christmas 2007
My grandmom died May 2020
My family pet died June 2020
My oldest brother died August 27, 2020(shot and killed in front his baby boy at 7-Eleven store)
In loving memory of my mother & father and my older brother.
I’m still grieving your lost, every time I breathe.

In the Beginning Was the Word Spoken Word

Yall pray for me. I am in a financially stressful situation and am trying my best to move. We are expecting our third child and want our baby to be in a house instead of an apartment. If you will, say a prayer for Lauren, Robert, Riley, and Rose.
Beautiful song, Sister Tamela.

This video is a modern take on The Color Purple scene when Shug Avery came back to the Lord. I love it.🥰 Mrs. Mann is one of the few Christian artist who has stayed consistent in her singing and worship throughout the years. 🙂
