Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lord I hear of showers of blessings
Thou art scattering full and free
Showers the thirsty souls refreshing
Let some drops now fall on me

Pass me not oh gentle saviour
Sinful though my heart may be
I am longing for your favor
Whilst thou art blessing
Oh lord
Come on and bless me

Even me lord
Even me
Even me lord
Even me

Let some drops
Let some drops
Whilst thou art blessing
Oh lord
Stop by and bless me

Oh stop by lord
Yes and bless me

Bless me
Protect me
Direct me
Even me lord

I need you
To come on down
And bless me
Sinful though my heart may be
I need you to come down
And bless me
Yes

While
Whilst thou art blessing
While you are in the blessing business today
Not tomorrow
I need you today
Yeah

Bless me
Protect me
Direct me
Even me lord

To stop by
Just drop by
Oh lord lord lord lord lord lord lord
Bless me

Overall Meaning

In "I'll Always Remember" by Yolanda Adams, the singer is calling out to the Lord for blessings. She acknowledges that the Lord is known for showering blessings on his people, and she pleads with him to remember her in his blessings. She admits that she is sinful, but she longs for the Lord's favor and protection. The repetition of "even me" emphasizes that she is asking for blessings even though she may not deserve them. The lines "Let some drops now fall on me" and "Whilst thou art blessing, oh Lord, stop by and bless me" convey a sense of urgency - she wants the Lord to bless her now, while he is actively blessing others.


The second verse contains the plea, "Pass me not, oh gentle Savior." This line refers to a hymn by Fanny Crosby called "Pass Me Not, O Gentle Savior," which Yolanda Adams is likely referencing in this song. The hymn is a plea for the Lord's mercy and grace, even for those who are undeserving. The use of this hymn in "I'll Always Remember" reinforces the idea of the singer's unworthiness and her reliance on the Lord's mercy.


Overall, "I'll Always Remember" is a heartfelt plea for God's blessings and protection, even in the face of the singer's own sinfulness. The use of traditional hymnody and repetition emphasizes the urgency of the plea and the singer's desperation for God's presence in her life.

I feel the same. It speaks to my spirit so deeply! There is definitely an anointing on it and while it isnt her most popular, I feel it is the most powerful.

Her vocals stand out distinctive from so many gospel vocalists. It's like an alive musical composition on canvas with shades, peaks, and lows. Awesome. Compelling and never too much but enough to truly appreciate. I LOVE IT
