Michael W. Smith's song 'Help Is On The Way,' featuring Israel Houghton, is an uplifting Christian anthem that speaks directly to those enduring hardship and emotional pain. The lyrics acknowledge the difficulty of suffering, noting that time alone doesn't heal deep wounds, but they pivot to a message of hope and divine assurance. The song emphasizes God's constant presence, His awareness of our tears, and His promise never to abandon us. It encourages listeners to hold on and stay strong, reminding them that God's help is always near and that His strength is sufficient in weakness. The repeated refrain 'Help is on the way' serves as a powerful declaration of faith and comfort.

People say time will heal
But you know, they just don't feel what you feel
Times are hard but God is so good
He's never failed you, and He said He never would
He see's your tears
He fights your fears
[CHORUS]
Hold on, help is on the way
He said he'd never leave you or forsake you
Stay strong
Help is on the way
He'd said he'd help you
Just reach out and take his hand
He knows your heart, He lifts your head
He's always close enough to hear every word you
said
When you're weak, He said He's so much more
His arm is long enough to reach you where you are
He see's your tears
He fights your fears
[CHORUS 2X]
Help is on the way [10X]
