Crawl (Carry Me Through) Lyrics
How long will this take?
How much can I go through?
My heart, my soul aches
I don't know what to do
I bend, but don't break
Somehow I'll get through
Cause I have You
And if I had to crawl
Well You'd crawl too
I stumble and I fall
Carry me through
The wonder of it all
Is You see me through
O Lord, where are you?
Do not forget me here
I cry in silence
Can you not see my tears
When all have left me
And hope has disappeared
You'll find me here
When everything I was is lost
I have forgot, but You have not
When I am lost, You have not lost me
You have not lost me
Song Description:
"One critic wrote the following about our album, Beauty from Pain:
"The songwriting seems more vapid, despite the personalized approach, with most songs merely offering a message of 'we all hurt, but hold on because it'll get better.'"
I think this critic missed the second half of the message: "Hold on, it will get better. You are not alone, God is with you." This is not vapid; there is a place below bottom where that is the only message that makes any sense. A friend called me to let me know about his baby birth, but as he asked me to pray, he choked up, unable to get the words out to tell me that his son was born with Down syndrome. I've watched mute and helpless while friends have lost family members to cancer. I've personally been to the dark place where suicide seems like the only way out. In those times, when our hearts have broken and are overflowing with grief, we don't need clever theology or smart slogans. All we need is the fundamental core truth of it all...that God has not left us - and though we may have lost hope and lost ourselves and lost everything, He has not lost us.
"How long, O Lord, will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all day?" Psalm 13:1-2" - Max Hsu (Superchick)
