Stood By My Side
Lyrics by Kellie Larson
"I don't want to die" This song is a deeply emotional testament to finding hope and healing through faith. It begins in a place of profound darkness, using imagery like "shadows falling" and a "world weighed heavy, crushing me down." The lyrics describe a feeling of being completely alone, overwhelmed by negative thoughts that lead to suicidal ideation.
The turning point is the introduction of a divine presence, "Lord," whose love is the "light that broke through." This relationship is a constant source of strength and companionship. The chorus, "When the world walked away, You stood by my side," powerfully contrasts feeling abandoned with the steadfast presence of this divine love. It's this love that transforms the speaker's despair into a renewed will to live, culminating in the repeated declaration, "I don't wanna die."
As the song progresses, the tone shifts from struggle to peace. The lies of worthlessness are replaced by the "sweet presence" of faith, filling the "emptiness inside" with peace. The outro reinforces this newfound security. The speaker no longer fears life's challenges, knowing this divine hand guides them.

(Verse 1)
Shadows falling, cold and deep,
Faces turned, secrets to keep.
World weighed heavy, crushing me down,
Lost in silence, no one around.
Whispers in the dark, told me to quit,
Said nobody cared, not even a bit.
But then a whisper, a light broke through,
A love wrapped around, strong and true.
(Chorus)
When the world walked away, You stood by my side,
My constant companion, nowhere to hide.
You have my back, Lord, a strength I can't deny,
And because You're with me, I don't wanna die.
(Verse 2)
The lies they echoed, now they fade away,
Your sweet presence brightens every day.
Emptiness inside, starts to fill,
With peace overflowing, making me still.
The urge to end it, it weakens and flees,
Drowned out by hope, finding inner ease.
(Chorus)
When the world walked away, You stood by my side,
My constant companion, nowhere to hide.
You have my back, Lord, a strength I can't deny,
And because You're with me, I don't wanna die.
(Bridge)
Don't walk this path with fear, not anymore,
Your presence makes me whole, to my very core.
Even in the valleys, Your hand guides my way,
Turning dark moments to a brighter day.
(Chorus)
When the world walked away, You stood by my side,
My constant companion, nowhere to hide.
You have my back, Lord, a strength I can't deny,
And because You're with me, I don't wanna die.
(Outro)
Don't wanna die, Your love set me free,
Forever in Your presence, eternally.
You have my back, Lord, I'm never alone,
