Tori Kelly and Kirk Franklin's 'Never Alone' is a contemporary gospel song about finding comfort and identity in God's love through life's struggles. The lyrics describe traveling difficult roads, crying rivers, and carrying shame, but emphasize that the singer is called God's own and hears heaven singing that they are never alone. The song acknowledges feelings of inadequacy and the temptation to find hope in material things, but ultimately affirms that imperfections are part of God's plan and that His love is deeper than any hole. It encourages listeners who have come too far to give up now, offering reassurance of God's constant presence.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

In my time I've travelled some roads

A rolling stone

Nowhere feels like home

And I've seen people come, then they go

Life is just a story of some highs and some lows

Tell me do you believe in miracles?

I'm standing here before your eyes


I've cried many rivers

I've walked through some pain

I've seen my world crumble

And I've carried the shame

But I know somebody, he calls me his own

I can hear heaven singing out

Oh-oh-oh, you're never alone

Oh-oh-oh, you're never alone


Everybody wants to be king

We put all our hope inside material things

In your light I now understand

That everything I have and everything that I am

Oh, sometimes I feel like I'm not good enough

But that's when love says you're mine


I've cried many rivers

I've walked through some pain

I've seen my world crumble

And I've carried the shame

But I know somebody, he calls me his own

I can hear heaven singing out

Oh-oh-oh, you're never alone

Oh-oh-oh, you're never alone


I may have took some time

But now I realise

My imperfections were a part of your plan

And if all things work together in the end

The broken world'll be beautiful


[Kirk Franklin:]

There's not a hole too deep

Where God's love is not deeper still

You've come too far to give up now

Let's go!


[Tori Kelly & Choir:]

I've cried many rivers

I've walked through some pain

I've seen my world crumble

And I've carried the shame

But I know somebody, he calls me his own

I can hear heaven singing out

Oh-oh-oh, you're never alone

Oh-oh-oh, you're never alone

Oh-oh-oh, you're never alone

Oh-oh-oh, you're never alone
