MercyMe's "Boost Me Up" is a heartfelt plea for God's help and presence. The song expresses the singer's exhaustion from trying to navigate life alone, feeling lost and overwhelmed. He asks God to lift him up, hold his hand, and guide him so he can walk without stumbling. The lyrics convey a deep dependence on God, acknowledging that only in Him can he stand, see, and find completeness and freedom. It's a song about surrender and reliance on divine strength, with a message of hope and trust in God's sustaining power.

I've been running in circles now
I cannot stand up straight
I squint so hard to see that now
I can't see hand in face
I have made my bed
I guess it's nap time for me
I have scratched the surface, now
I'm in a hole too deep
I'm tired of being over my head
I don't want to sleep just yet
Yeah, yeah
Boost me up so I can see
Hold my hand
So I can walk without stumbling
Me with You with me
Trying to stand my ground, I have
I have waved at You
Now my wave turns to reaching
And I'm reaching for You
I own no ground for me to stand
On my own
On my own, a helpless man
Boost me up so I can see
Hold my hand, yeah
So I can walk without stumbling
Me with You with me
Boost me up so I can see
Hold my hand, yeah
So I can walk without stumbling
Me with You with me
In You I can stand, in You I can see
In You I am complete
In You I can walk, in You I can run
In You I am free
Boost me up so I can see
Hold my hand
So I can walk without stumbling
Me with You with me
Boost me up so I can see
Hold my hand, yeah
So I can walk without stumbling
Me with You with me
Boost me up so I can see You
Hold my hand
So I can walk without me stumbling
It's me with You, it's You with me, yeah
It's me with You with me
