Casting Crowns' song 'Every Man' explores the hidden struggles people face behind their everyday roles. The lyrics describe a man who appears successful but feels like a loser inside, a soldier battling fear, and a woman haunted by past decisions. The song asks whether there is hope, love, and peace for such broken individuals. It answers that Jesus is the solid place and the love that never dies, offering hope in a dry and weary land. The song connects to the universal human experience of pain and the need for a Savior who understands.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
I'm the man with all I've ever wanted
All the toys and playing games
I am the one who pours your coffee, corner booth each Saturday
I am your daughter's favorite teacher
I am the leader of the band
I sit behind you in the bleachers
I am every man
I'm the coach of every winning team and still a loser in my mind
I am the soldier in the Airborne facing giants one more time
I am the woman shamed and haunted by the cry of unborn life
I'm every broken man, nervous child, lonely wife
Is there hope for every man
A solid place where we can stand
In this dry and weary land
Is there hope for every man
Is there love that never dies
Is there peace in troubled times
Someone help me understand
Is there hope for every man
Seems there's just so many roads to travel, it's hard to tell where they will lead
My life is scarred and my dreams unraveled
Now I'm scared to take the leap
If I could find someone to follow who knows my pain and feels the weight
The uncertainty of my tomorrow, the guilt and pain of yesterday
There is hope for every man
A solid place where we can stand
In this dry and weary land
There is hope for every man
There is Love that never dies
There is peace in troubled times
Will we help them understand?
Jesus is hope for every man
