Kalley - Ever Be Lyrics
Lyrics
Your love is devoted like a ring of solid gold
Like a vow that is tested like a covenant of old
Your love is enduring through the winter rain
And beyond the horizon with mercy for today
Faithful you have been and faithful you will be
You pledge yourself to me and it's why I sing
Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips
Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips
You father the orphan
Your kindness makes us whole
You shoulder our weakness
And your strength becomes our own
You're making me like you
Clothing me in white
Bringing beauty from ashes
For you will have your bride
Free of all her guilt and rid of all her shame
And known by her true name and it's why I sing
You will be praised you will be praised
With angels and saints we sing worthy are you, Lord
You will be praised you will be praised
With angels and saints we sing worthy are you, Lord

Meaning & Inspiration
Released in 2015, Kalley’s “Ever Be” is a profound declaration of God’s unwavering faithfulness, offering a spiritual anchor in the often turbulent waters of life. The song’s core message centers on the immutability of God’s character, a truth that resonates deeply throughout Scripture. It’s not merely a song about hopeful wishing; rather, it’s a confident proclamation rooted in biblical revelation. The story behind the song, while not explicitly detailed in its release, powerfully echoes the biblical narrative of God’s consistent love and presence. In a world where circumstances shift like sand, “Ever Be” reminds us of the solid ground found in Christ, whose nature does not change. This is vividly illustrated in Malachi 3:6, where God declares, "For I the Lord do not change; therefore you, O children of Jacob, are not consumed." Similarly, Hebrews 13:8 states, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." Kalley's rendition captures this unchanging essence, presenting a God who is dependable through every season. The song encourages a deep trust, moving beyond fleeting emotions to an assured reliance on God’s promises, much like David’s declaration in Psalm 16:8, "I have set the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved." This persistent faithfulness isn't a passive trait; it's an active and sustaining force, as seen in the constant care God provides, akin to the imagery in Psalm 121:3-4: "he will not let your foot be moved; he who keeps you will not slumber." “Ever Be” invites listeners to internalize this truth, finding solace and strength in the immutable love and power of a God who remains steadfast, a beacon of hope in all generations, truly embodying the everlasting nature described in Isaiah 40:28: "Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired, he will not faint."
