Mark Schultz – He Will Carry Me Lyrics

Christian

I call, You hear me
I've lost it all
And it's more then I can bear
I feel so empty

Your strong, I'm weary
I'm holding on
But I feel like giving in
But still You're with me

(Pre-chorus and Chorus)
And even though I'm walking
Through the valley of the shadow
I will hold tight to the hand of Him
Whose love will comfort me
And when my hope is gone
And I've been wounded in the battle
He is all the strength that I will ever need
He will carry me

I know I'm broken
But You alone
Can mend this heart of mine
You're always with me

And even though I'm walking
Through the valley of the shadow
I will hold tight to the hand of Him
Who's love will comfort me
And when my hope is gone
And I've been wounded in the battle
He is all the strength that I will ever need
He will carry me
He will carry me

(Bridge)
And even though I feel so lonely
Like I have never been before
You never said it would be easy
But You said You'd see me through the storm

And even though I'm walking
Through the valley of the shadow
I will hold tight to the hand of Him
Whose love will comfort me
And when my hope is gone
And I've been wounded in the battle
He is all the strength that I will ever need
He will carry me
He will carry me
He will carry me

About This Song

"He Will Carry Me" is a deeply personal Christian ballad about finding strength and comfort in God during life's darkest moments of despair and spiritual emptiness. The song captures the raw vulnerability of someone who has "lost it all" and feels overwhelmed, yet discovers that divine love provides unwavering support even in the "valley of the shadow." Schultz's tender, contemplative vocal delivery over gentle acoustic instrumentation creates an intimate atmosphere that mirrors the song's themes of surrender and trust. The lyrics draw heavily from Psalm 23 imagery, transforming biblical metaphors into contemporary expressions of faith during crisis. This track stands out in Christian music for its honest portrayal of doubt and weakness, offering hope not through triumphant declarations but through quiet assurance that God's presence sustains believers through their most difficult battles.
