Help Me
Begging for Grace: Johnny Cash's Soulful Plea in 'Help Me'
Lyrics
Lord, Help me walk
Expressing a plea for divine assistance in navigating life's challenges.
Another mile, just one more mile,
Requesting strength to endure and overcome difficulties, symbolized by a metaphorical mile.
I'm tired of walkin' all alone.
Feeling weary and fatigued from the journey of life, seeking companionship and support.
Lord, Help me smile
Asking for divine guidance to find reasons to be happy and optimistic.
Another smile, just one more smile,
Seeking additional moments of joy, acknowledging the struggle to find happiness alone.
I know I just can't make it on my own.
Recognizing the inability to navigate life's challenges independently and acknowledging the need for assistance.
I never thought I needed help before,
Reflecting on a past belief in self-sufficiency and realizing the necessity of seeking help.
I thought that I could do things by myself.
Admitting a previous misconception about independence and self-reliance.
Now I know I just can't take it any more.
Acknowledging the current inability to endure challenges alone.
With a humble heart, on bended knee,
Expressing humility and submission, adopting a humble posture in seeking divine assistance.
I'm beggin' You, please, Help Me.
Formally requesting help with sincerity and earnestness.
Come down from Your golden
Invoking the image of a divine being leaving a majestic position to connect with the petitioner.
Throne to me, to lowly me,
Emphasizing the petitioner's lowly state and the need for divine intervention.
I need to feel the touch of Your tender hand.
Desiring a tactile connection with the divine, seeking comfort and reassurance.
Remove the chains of darkness
Requesting liberation from spiritual darkness and a clearer understanding of one's purpose.
And let me see, Lord let me see,
Asking for insight into one's role in the broader plan devised by the divine.
Just where I fit into your master plan.
Expressing a desire to align with the divine plan and seeking clarity about one's purpose.
I never thought I needed help before,
Reiterating the realization of the need for help, emphasizing the change in perspective.
I thought that I could do things by myself.
Reflecting on the initial misconception of self-sufficiency and acknowledging the shift in understanding.
Now I know I just can't take it any more.
Affirming the present recognition of the inability to face challenges without divine assistance.
With a humble heart, on bended knee,
Repeating the expression of humility and earnestly asking for help.
I'm beggin' You, please, Help Me.
Concluding the plea for assistance with a heartfelt request for divine help.
