Sandra McCracken's 'You Are With Me' is a song of comfort and reassurance for those in difficult seasons. The lyrics express weariness and a sense of being in a valley, yet the singer chooses to lift her eyes and trust that God is present. She recalls God's comfort and the promise that joy comes in the morning. The song emphasizes God's constant presence—behind, before, and beside—even in dark valleys. It also touches on renewal, as God brings dry bones back to life. The repeated declaration 'I know You are with me' reinforces a theme of faith amid struggle, with a resolve to wait and praise.

Submit Lyrics

My heart is heavy and tired

In this valley

Mountains grow higher and higher

But I can?t find You

I?ll keep lifting my eyes

I know You?re with me

I hear Your voice when You cry

Comfort, comfort

Sorrow may last for a night

But in the morning

Your joy breaks in with the light

I know You?re with me

And You are for me

You?ve been behind me

You go before

You walk beside me

Through darkest valleys

I know You are with me

You led me here where it?s dry

Out in the desert

You bring these bones back to life

You put together

You sing a song of delight

I know You?re with me

And You are for me

You?ve been behind me

You go before

You walk beside me

Through darkest valleys

I know You are with me

You will be praised

I will, oh I will wait

You will be praised

I will, oh I will wait

I know You?re with me

And You are for me

You?ve been behind me

You go before

You walk beside me

Through darkest valleys

I know You are with me

You Are With Me
