Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴I almost let go.
I felt like I just couldn't take life anymore.
My problems had me bound
Depression weighed me down.
But God held me close, so I wouldn't let go.

Overall Meaning
The song "I Am The One" by Kurt Carr Singers is a powerful testimony of faith and perseverance through life's struggles. The lyrics convey the story of a person who had reached their breaking point, feeling overwhelmed by their problems and weighed down by depression. In the midst of it all, God held them close and kept them from letting go. The first verse emphasizes the importance of God's mercy in keeping this person going, even when life became too much to bear. The second verse speaks to a moment of near defeat, as the person was about to give up just when they were on the verge of a breakthrough. But even in that moment, Jesus stepped in and saved them from the devil's grip.
The chorus is a declaration of gratitude and praise to God for his keeping power: "So I'm here today because God kept me. I'm alive today, only because of His grace. Oh, He Kept me, God Kept me, He kept me, So I wouldn't let go." The song is both a testimony of an individual experience and a universal message of hope and faith for all who might be going through their own struggles. It reminds us that even in our darkest moments, we are not alone, and that with God's help, we can overcome whatever challenges we face.
