From the recording He Carried Me Through
Lyrics
He Carried Me Through
Verse 1
I never thought I’d walk that road
Never thought I’d feel that kind of hurt
A heart can break in ways nobody knows
When you lose the one you loved first
I looked at my little girl and prayed
“Lord, give me strength to lead the way”
Through the tears and the sleepless nights
You held my hand and stayed by my side
Pre-Chorus
I didn’t understand the plan
I didn’t know how I would stand
But when I had nothing left to give
You were the reason I could live
Chorus
You carried me through the darkest valley
You held me close when I felt alone
You gave me strength when my heart was breaking
And reminded me I wasn’t on my own
You took my pain and gave me purpose
You turned my tears into a testimony
Now I’m building a new life with the family You gave me
And I know You’re still writing my story
Verse 2
There are memories I’ll always treasure
There are moments I’ll never forget
But I know love doesn’t disappear
And Your grace has carried me through every step
I’m raising my little girl with faith
Teaching her about Your amazing grace
And every day I see Your hand
Helping me become a better man
Chorus
You carried me through the darkest valley
You held me close when I felt alone
You gave me strength when my heart was breaking
And reminded me I wasn’t on my own
You took my pain and gave me purpose
You turned my tears into a testimony
Now I’m building a new life with the family You gave me
And I know You’re still writing my story
Bridge
I’m not the man I was before
You opened up a brand new door
The past is something I can’t change
But You have made a way
From the ashes, You brought beauty
From the sorrow, You brought hope
And every step into tomorrow
I know I’ll never walk alone
Final Chorus
You carried me through the darkest valley
You were my shelter in the storm
You gave me strength to keep on standing
When I didn’t know where I belonged
Now I’m looking toward tomorrow
With a grateful heart and a brand new start
Because the God who healed my broken pieces
Is still holding my heart
You carried me through
And You’re not finished yet
You’re still writing my story
With every breath I get
