Pat Barrett's song 'My Help' is a declaration of dependence on God's Spirit and strength. The lyrics affirm that help comes from the Lord in every season, whether joy or sorrow. Drawing from the biblical principle of Zechariah 4:6, the song emphasizes that victory comes not by human power but by God's Spirit. It expresses confidence in God's perfect love that casts out fear and celebrates the victory believers have through Christ. The repeated refrain 'My help is from the Lord' serves as a grounding reminder of God's faithfulness and presence.

Your Spirit within me

My help is from the Lord

My help is from the Lord

 

In joy and in sorrow

Today and tomorrow

My help is from the Lord

My help is from the Lord

 

My heart

My soul

For You

Alone

I?m standing here with open arms

I?m learning where my help comes from

I?m singing like the battle?s won

I?m learning where my strength comes from

 

Not by power

Not by might

By the Spirit of God

Up to the Heavens

I lift my eyes

Fully surrendered

All of my life

 

I?m laughing in the face of fear

Cause Your perfect love is with me here

I?m living in Your victory

Cause Heaven is surrounding me

 

No weapon against me

Your Spirit within me

My help is from the Lord

My help is from the Lord

 

In joy and in sorrow

Today and tomorrow

My help is from the Lord

My help is from the Lord

 

My heart

My soul

For You

Alone
