When I'm low and feeling down and out, I get discouraged
Overtaken by the weight of all the things I've carried
It seems
The only faithful thing is (me)
I feel alone in the (struggle)
My life is flooded by all the (pain)
I'm burdened down by all the (trouble)
Then I realize that I still have you
You make all things better
Being with you makes all things better
When the darkness closes in and I can't see daylight
I confused at night don't know what to do with my life
The only faithful thing is (me)
I feel alone in the (struggle)
My life is flooded by all the (pain)
I'm burdened down by all the (trouble)
Then I realize that I still have you
You, you make all things better
Being with you makes all things better
You make all things better
Being with you makes all things better
I may not be finished
But I'm getting better
Still may have some scars
But you make it better
I may not be healed
But I'm like the lepers
As long as I keep on walking
You make it better
The past is behind me
I'm moving ahead
The road may not be easy
But you make it better
You make all things better
Being with you makes all things better
You make all things better
Being with you makes all things better
Better, better
Better, better
Better
You make it better
With you is better
Everything's better
Better
You make it better
With you is better
Everything's better
Better, better
Better, better
Better, better
I may not be finished
But I'm getting better
Still may have some scars
But you make it better
About This Song
"Better" is a deeply personal gospel anthem that chronicles the journey from despair to divine reassurance, with Tye Tribbett vulnerably expressing feelings of being overwhelmed by life's burdens before finding solace in his relationship with God. The song explores themes of spiritual isolation, emotional weight, and the transformative power of faith, as the lyrics move from acknowledging human frailty and the temptation to rely solely on oneself to recognizing God's constant presence. Musically, it features Tribbett's signature contemporary gospel style with dynamic vocal runs, building from intimate verses to a soaring, anthemic chorus that emphasizes the healing power of divine companionship. The track stands out for its honest portrayal of spiritual struggle rather than presenting faith as an easy solution, making it resonate with believers who face real-world challenges. Its message that God "makes all things better" serves as both a declaration of faith and a reminder that spiritual connection can provide clarity and comfort even in the darkest moments.
