Lyrics

Verse 1:
We won't forget our God who remembered us
As we cried out in the wilderness
Many other hearts have turned away
But my trust in you will remain


Chorus:
It is you oh Lord who has delivered us
It is you Oh Lord who has saved our souls
It is you Oh Lord who will carry us through
For you are God alone


Verse 2:
We won't forget the works of your mighty hand
Miracles you've done time and time again
How you've covered us with your righteousness
For you are God alone


Chorus:
It is you oh Lord who has delivered us
It is you Oh Lord who has saved our souls
It is you Oh Lord who will carry us through
For you are God alone


Bridge:
You've brought us this far and you'll carry us through
You will carry us through
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
He will carry us through


He will carry us through
He will carry us through
He will carry us through
He will carry us through

Meaning & Inspiration

“Carry Us Through” frames remembrance as a response to uncertainty. The lyric looks back to cries in the wilderness, mighty works, repeated miracles, and the covering of righteousness. Each memory supports its central confession: the Lord who delivered and saved remains able to sustain his people. The contrast between hearts that turn away and trust that remains gives the song a communal language of perseverance.

Its wilderness imagery recalls Israel’s repeated call to remember God’s acts, while the chorus’s confidence aligns with Scripture’s portrayal of God as faithful through hardship. The line about being brought “this far” does not treat past help as a closed chapter; it becomes the basis for present hope. Repeated statements that God will carry his people through turn the bridge into an affirmation of dependence. The song therefore joins gratitude, testimony, and expectation without suggesting that difficulty has disappeared.
