Lecrae + Tori Kelly - I'll Find You Lyrics
Lyrics
Tori Kelly:
Just fight a little longer, my friend
It's all worth it in the end
But when you got nobody to turn to
Just hold on, and I'll find you
I'll find you
I'll find you
Just hold on, and I'll find you
Lecrae:
I'm hanging on by a thread
And all I'm clinging to is prayers
And every breath is like a battle
I feel like I ain't come prepared
And death's knockin' on the front door
Pain's creepin' through the back
Fear's crawlin' through the windows
Waiting for em' to attack
They say "Don't get bitter, get better"
I'm working on switching them letters
But tell God I'mma need a whole lotta hope keeping it together
I'm smilin' in everyone's face
I'm cryin' whenever they leave the room
They don't know the battle I face
They don't understand what I'm going through
The world tryna play with my soul
I'm just tryna find where to go
I'm tryna remember the way
I'm tryna get back to my home
But I can't do this on my own
That's why I'm just trusting in you
Cuz I don't know where else to go
And I don't know what else to do
Tori Kelly:
Just fight a little longer, my friend
It's all worth it in the end
But when you've got nobody to turn to
Just hold on, and I'll find you
Just fight a little longer, my friend
It's all worth it in the end
But when you've got nobody to turn to
Just hold on, and I'll find you
I'll find you
I'll find you
Just hold on, and I'll find you
I'll find you
I'll find you
Just hold on, and I'll find you
Lecrae:
They say fear haunts
And pain hates
I say pain strengthens
And fear drives faith
And I don't know all of the outcomes
Don't know what happens tomorrow
But when that ocean of doubt comes
Don't let me drown in my sorrow
And don't let me stay at the bottom
I feel like this hole is too deep to climb
I've been lookin' for a way out
But I'll settle for a peace of mind
Picking up the pieces of my life and hopin' that I put together something right
Tell me all I got is all I need
Tell me you gon' help me stay and fight
The world trying to play with my soul
I'm just tryna find where to go
I'm trying to remember the way
I'm trying to get back to my home
But I can't do this on my own
That's why I'm just trusting in you
Cuz I don't know where else to go
And I don't know what else to do
Tori Kelly:
No don't let the fear
Make you feel like you can't fight this on your own
You know I, I'll be there for you no matter where you go
You'll never be alone, no
Just fight a little longer, my friend
It's all worth it in the end
But,when you've got nobody to turn to
Just hold on, and I'll find you
Just fight a little longer, my friend
It's all worth it in the end
But when you've got nobody to turn to
Just hold on, and I'll find you
I'll find you
I'll find you
Just hold on, and I'll find you
I'll find you
I'll find you
Just hold on, and I'll find you

Meaning & Inspiration
Released on July 28, 2017, Lecrae's "I'll Find You" featuring Tori Kelly is a powerful anthem of hope and unwavering presence, particularly resonant for anyone navigating moments of darkness or despair. The song’s core message speaks directly to the faithfulness of God, even when we feel lost or unseen. It’s a musical testament to the biblical assurance that no matter how far we stray or how deeply we fall, there is a divine love that actively seeks us out. This concept is beautifully mirrored in passages like Jeremiah 29:13, which promises, “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” The lyrics convey a profound sense of reassurance, underscoring that this pursuit is not contingent on our own strength or ability to find our way back, but on a persistent, loving outreach from a higher power.
The narrative woven through the song paints a vivid picture of emotional struggle, the kind where the weight of the world can feel crushing and the light at the end of the tunnel seems impossibly distant. In these times, the human tendency can be to isolate, to believe we are beyond reach. However, "I'll Find You" offers a counter-narrative, a divine promise that echoes the sentiment found in Psalm 139:7-10: "Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast." This speaks to an omnipresent love, a constant source of strength that extends its reach even into our deepest valleys.
The collaboration between Lecrae and Tori Kelly is particularly impactful, blending Lecrae's raw, honest lyricism with Kelly's soulful delivery. This fusion creates an experience that is both grounding and uplifting. The song isn't just about an abstract promise; it’s about a tangible, active force that searches, that cares, and that ultimately brings us back to a place of wholeness. It reminds us of Jesus' parable in Luke 15 where the shepherd leaves the ninety-nine to find the one lost sheep, or the woman who sweeps her house diligently until she finds the lost coin. These parables illustrate God’s profound investment in each individual soul, a tireless pursuit that ensures no one is truly forgotten. "I'll Find You" serves as a spiritual anchor, encouraging listeners to hold onto the unwavering certainty of divine love and the promise of being found, no matter the circumstances. It’s a message of enduring hope, a reminder that even in our darkest hours, a loving presence is always on the search for us, ready to guide us home.
