Ellie Holcomb's song 'I Will Carry You' is a gentle, reassuring piece that speaks directly to someone struggling with anxiety, exhaustion, and self-doubt. The lyrics present God's voice offering comfort and strength, promising to carry the listener through dark nights and overwhelming circumstances. It emphasizes that a person's worth is not defined by their mistakes and that they don't need to hide their pain. The song draws on biblical imagery of God as a shield and burden-bearer, echoing passages like Isaiah 46:4 and Psalm 68:19. It's a tender reminder of God's faithful presence in times of fear and weariness.

Lyrics:

I know you?re tired , I see it in your eyes

All that anxiety that rules your mind 

I?ll be your shield when you don?t feel like you?ve got strength enough to fight 

I?ll stand by your side


I will carry you 

through your darkest nights

When you?re terrified 

I will carry you 

When the water?s rise 

When your Hope runs dry 

I will carry you 


You are not the sum of your mistakes 

You don?t have to hide the parts of you that ache

I choose you as you are a million times 

Cause I?m not ashamed of you , 

I won?t walk away from you 


 I will carry you 

through your darkest nights

When you?re terrified 

I will carry you 

When the water?s rise 

When your Hope runs dry 

I will carry you 


Up and over the mountains

Valley deep as the ocean

And when you can?t keep going 

I will shoulder your burdens
