Scott Wesley Brown - He Will Carry You - If He Carried The Weight of The World Lyrics
Lyrics
There is no problem too big God cannot solve it There is no mountain too tall He cannot move it And there is no storm too dark God cannot calm it There is no sorrow too deep He cannot soothe it
If He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders I know my brother that He will carry you And if He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders I know my sister that He will carry you
There is no problem too big God cannot solve it There is no mountain too tall He cannot move it And there is no storm too dark God cannot calm it There is no sorrow too deep He cannot soothe it
If He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders I know my brother that He will carry you And if He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders I know my sister that He will carry you

HE WILL CARRY YOU Scott Wesley Brown Lyric Video
Meaning & Inspiration
We have all been there, sitting in the quiet wreckage of a bad day or a crushing season, wondering if God is actually paying attention to the details of our frantic lives. Scott Wesley Brown hit on something vital with this track. It isn’t trying to be fancy or overly complex; it just anchors itself in the simple, bedrock truth that the God who holds the galaxies is the same God holding our fragile humanity. When Brown sings that there is no mountain too tall for God to move, he is echoing the promise in Matthew 17:20 about the power of faith, but he shifts the focus from our limited effort to the infinite capacity of our Creator.
The core of this track rests on the staggering imagery of Christ bearing the weight of the world upon His shoulders. Think about that for a second. We talk about the burden of our personal sins and our daily anxieties, yet we forget that the cross was the ultimate intersection of human suffering and divine strength. Isaiah 53 tells us He took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, and that is exactly where the song pulls its weight. If the Messiah could endure the crushing penalty of sin for all humanity, He surely possesses the power to handle the minor, messy details of your current struggle.
When the lyrics turn toward the assurance that He will carry you, it points directly to the invitation in 1 Peter 5:7 to cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you. It moves away from the idea that we have to muscle through life on our own grit and instead calls us to trust the One who already defeated the darkness of the grave. You don't have to keep trying to climb your personal mountains alone because the heavy lifting was finished long ago at Calvary. Your sorrow, no matter how deep, does not surprise Him, nor does it exceed the reach of His grace. Faith is not about feeling strong; it is about knowing exactly who is holding you when you are too tired to keep standing. You are never an orphan in your struggle, and you were never meant to carry the crushing weight of this life by yourself.
