Help Me Lord

Aaron Keyes's song 'Help Me, Lord' is a heartfelt prayer of dependence and surrender. The lyrics express weariness, confusion, and a sense of distance from God, yet the singer chooses to trust God's heart and throw themselves into His arms. The song echoes Jesus' prayer in Gethsemane, asking for strength to say 'not my will but Yours be done.' It is a quiet, honest cry for help, comfort, and nearness, resting in God's love and sovereignty even when circumstances feel dark.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Help me Lord, I can't see

What you have in store for me

Even though all seems dark

Help me Lord to trust Your heart


I am tired, I am weak

Are You listening to me?

You seem so far, far from here

Now I need You to be near


I throw myself into Your arms

Resting in tenderness and love

You are the Lord, I bow to You

And I will always follow You


Hold me close, Holy One

Let Your loving comfort come

Help me pray like Your Son

Not my will but Yours be done
