Lauren Daigle - O' Lord Lyrics
Lyrics
Though times it seems like I'm coming undone
This walk can often feel lonely
No matter what until this race is won
I will stand my ground
Where hope can be found
I will stand my ground
Where hope can be found
Oh! O' Lord, o' Lord, I know You hear my cry
Your love is lifting me above all the lies
No matter what I face this I know in time
You'll take all that is wrong and make it right
You'll take all that is wrong and make it right
Your strength is found at the end of my road
Your grace—it reaches to the hurting
Still through the tears and the questioning why
I will stand my ground
Where hope can be found!
I will stand my ground
Where hope can be found!
Oh, O' Lord, O' Lord, I know You hear my cry
Your love is lifting me above all the lies
No matter what I face this I know in time
You'll take all that is wrong and make it right
You'll take all that is wrong and make it right
Right, make it right, make it right,
(so right)
Make it right,
Right, make it right, make it right,
(so right)
Make it right,
I will stand my ground
Where hope can be found
I will stand my ground
Where hope can be found
I will stand my ground
Where hope can be found!
I will stand my ground
Where hope can be found!
Oh! O' Lord, o' Lord, I know You hear my cry
Your love is lifting me above all the lies
No matter what I face this I know in time
You'll take all that is wrong and make it right
You'll take all that is wrong and make it right
Right, make it right, make it right,
(so right)
Make it right,
Right, make it right, make it right,
(so right)
Make it right, right,

Lauren Daigle - O' Lord
Meaning & Inspiration
Lauren Daigle's "O Lord," released as part of her 2017 "O' Lord (Radio Version) - Single," is a profound musical offering that delves into the deep wells of faith and dependence on the divine. This song, far from a fleeting pop melody, is a powerful declaration of surrender and trust, rooted firmly in biblical truth. The central theme resonates with the universal human experience of facing overwhelming circumstances and turning to God for strength and guidance. It speaks to the heart of what it means to be truly reliant on a power greater than ourselves, a sentiment echoed throughout Scripture. Consider the psalmist's cry in Psalm 27:1, "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the defense of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?" This foundational principle of finding security in God is palpable in Daigle's delivery. The song’s narrative feels like a modern-day echo of Job’s steadfast faith even in his deepest trials, where despite losing everything, he ultimately declared in Job 13:15, "Though he slay me, yet will I trust him." "O Lord" encapsulates this unwavering commitment, acknowledging human frailty while simultaneously exalting divine sufficiency. It’s a testament to the understanding that in our weakness, God’s power is made perfect, as Paul famously wrote in 2 Corinthians 12:9, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." The song’s impact lies in its ability to encourage listeners to release their burdens, much like Jesus invited in Matthew 11:28, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." "O Lord" serves as a beautifully crafted invitation to that very rest, a reminder that in acknowledging our need for Him, we tap into an inexhaustible source of hope and resilience.
