Jekalyn Carr - Jehovah Jireh Reprise Lyrics
Lyrics
I need somebody that knows that He'll provide to lift your voice
Open your mouth and shout, He will provide, He will provide
Whatever you need Him to do, whatever you need Him to do
He came to rescue you, He came to break you free
You ought to open your mouth and shout, He will, He will!
I know He will, I know He will
I've never seen the righteousness
I've never seen the righteousness
You ought to open your mouth right
There and shout, He won't forsake me
He won't forsake me
I know He will, He will
He will, He will, He will, He will, He will
He will, He will, He will, He will, He will, He will
I know He will, I know He will, I know He will
I know that I know, that I know, that I know, that I know
That I know, that I know, that I know, that I know
He will, He will
He will, He will
There is no doubt in the mind
He will, He will
The same God that brought me out the last time
And the last time, and the last time, and the last time
He's going to bring me out this time
He will, He will
Know that I know
Know that I know, that I know, that I know,
That I know, that I know, that I know, that I know

Meaning & Inspiration
Jekalyn Carr’s “Jehovah Jireh Reprise,” found on her 2020 album *Changing Your Story*, is a powerful declaration of faith, a jubilant anthem rooted in the unshakeable truth of God's provision. This track isn't just a song; it's an experience of spiritual certainty, built on the foundational promise of Jehovah Jireh, a name Abraham gave to God in Genesis 22:14, signifying "The Lord Will Provide." The song's essence lies in its unwavering conviction, echoing the sentiment of Psalms 23:1, "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want." Carr encourages listeners to open their mouths and shout, not out of desperation, but from a place of triumphant knowledge that God has, and will, come to rescue and break us free from any bondage.
The lyrical core of “Jehovah Jireh Reprise” is a testament to personal experience and an assurance of God's enduring faithfulness. The repeated refrain, "I know He will," is more than just a hopeful whisper; it’s a deep-seated certainty born from past victories. This resonates with the scriptural reminder in Lamentations 3:22-23, "The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness." Carr’s conviction that "I've never seen the righteousness... He won't forsake me" speaks to a profound trust that mirrors the psalmist's declaration in Psalm 37:25, "I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken or his children begging for bread." The repetition of "He will" throughout the song reinforces the divine power and certainty of God's action, a truth that transcends circumstances.
This reprise powerfully underscores the message that the same God who delivered in the past is the same God who will deliver in the future. The repeated phrase, "The same God that brought me out the last time and the last time, and the last time... He's going to bring me out this time," is a profound acknowledgment of God's unchanging nature, as stated in Hebrews 13:8: "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." This isn’t about hoping for a miracle; it’s about knowing the character of God through tested experience. The emphasis on knowing that He will, a certainty Carr conveys with escalating passion, invites the listener into a space of spiritual victory, reminding us of God's promise in Philippians 1:6: "And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will continue it until the day of Jesus Christ." “Jehovah Jireh Reprise” is a vibrant and inspiring musical proclamation, encouraging all who hear it to lift their voices in joyful confidence, knowing that their Provider is ever-present and ever-faithful.
