NEEDTOBREATHE - Forever On Your Side Lyrics






I won't pretend
That we can control the night
Or what kind of road we're on
Oh where we will see the light
Right now I'm talking to you
I'm looking into your eyes
Right now I'm trying to show you
That we're gonna be alright

Oh I don't know
What's around the bend
All I know
Is that my love
It knows no end

All these pieces they fall in line
Because I'm forever on your side
Take my hand when you can't see the light
'Cause I'm forever on your side
I will carry you every time
'Cause I'm forever on your side

They'll beat you up
But don't let them keep you down
'Cause you're always tough enough
And I'll always be around

Oh I don't know
What's around the bend
All I know
Is that my love
It knows no end

All these pieces they fall in line
Because I'm forever on your side
Take my hand when you can't see the light
'Cause I'm forever on your side
I will carry you every time
'Cause I'm forever on your side
Oh I'm forever on your side

Oh I can't promise that a day will never come
Where the ground beneath us falls out and we got no where to run
Oh but you won't be alone when the water starts to rise up
No you won't be alone my darling when the rains come

Oh I don't know
What's around the bend (what's around the bend)
All I know (yeah all I know)
Is that my love
It knows no end

All these pieces they fall in line
Because I'm forever on your side
Take my hand when you can't see the light
'Cause I'm forever on your side
I will carry you every time
'Cause I'm forever on your side
Oh I'm forever on your side (forever, forever)
Oh I'm forever on your side (forever, forever)
Oh I'm forever on your side

    I loved someone as a young man. She was beautiful, successful, smart, hard working, and for some reason loved me back. We lived a country apart, she was Canadian, I was moving to Illinois at the time. We visited and met a few times, and I got to meet some of her family. The problem was I had no idea how to be in a relationship from the abuse I suffered in my life; so I cheated on her. Badly... A lot. I never told her, I chose it that way. It was easier to cheat and lie than to confess and try to commit. I missed her. I know that season is gone, but I was given something better. A relationship with Jesus. It took a while, about 8 years after that to get the idea, but, I've been trying to tackle chastity for 2 solid years now and have had a good deal of success along with other major things like addiction and honesty. I won't compare but I can say I like me better now than I did then, which is important. God Bless you all in this new decade, don't forget that God loves you, he always does.

    My Story - The Journey

    When I take the time to stop and think about my journey, the path my life has taken, I realize that as hard as it has been that I have lived one of those one in a million lives. A lot of things I would never volunteer to go back and live again but thankful enough that they happened all as a part of Gods plan for my life. This is the short version so I will skip my growing up and a lot of my background except to say I grew up blessed with a great family who always supported me in all I did. Married at the age of 21 with my wife carrying my first born son, we would go on to have a daughter 5 years later. Still to this day of all my accomplishments and things I have helped create, none come close to the perfection of my children. Began a career in Sports Broadcasting as a video editor at the age of 22 and soon found myself working for the likes of ESPN, FOX, CBS, etc. Have covered Super Bowls, Final Fours, MLB Playoffs, Wimbledon, and even won an Emmy for my work at the 2004 Athens Olympics. I had it all, a beautiful family, great career, and financially sound yet I still was looking for things to add to my life and in that search I found drugs, alcohol, and the overall party lifestyle. Slowly but surely the walls began to fall beginning with my divorce in 2004. I managed to somehow continue my career in spite of my habits but all that came to a crashing halt on April 1, 2007 in Augusta, GA. I was in town to cover the Masters, the most prestigious golf tournament in the world, as an editor for CBS Sports. I arrived on the Sunday before the first practice round and upon arriving the party began. 12 hours later and still high on cocaine and crack I found myself in a position of needing money to give to people I had been partying with. Lots of details go into what transpired but what ultimately happened was me walking into a bank and robbing them for $1500. Was making 6 figures and had money in the bank at home but my life had gotten out of control and it had led to a life altering decision that changed my life in ways that I only now understand. 29 months later I walked out of Federal prison totally broken, lost, and with idea on how to begin rebuilding my life. The human side of me wanted everything to return to normal but reality set in and wow what an uphill battle was in front of me. I had been banned from ever working in television again so that wasn't an option and my first job was cleaning port-a-potties for just above minimum wage. Talk about a humbling experience and learning to understand that life can sure be hard sometimes and that so many people just do what they have to do in order to survive. I knew though that I had to push through and set my sights on something bigger even though I still had no idea what direction to go. 4 years later and several jobs later I finally hit bottom. Family had to separate themselves from, friends were done with me, no car, no home, no money and no hope I attempted to end my life three times on the night of June 6th, 2013. God would have none of it and made it clear that it was now time to stop existing and start living. I vowed to myself I would get back everything I had lost and added one to that list, I wanted to find my purpose. It would take time but I knew I had to check each of them off little by little. So with the help of my parents after pleading for a change I checked into a rehab in Birmingham, AL. Six months later out of the blue I got a phone call from a friend that owned a small TV station and asked if I would be interested in working there. The pay was very little but the opportunity had a value that no dollar signs can ever compare to. Six months after that my son called me for the first time asking me to come see him play baseball, I was in Miami covering baseball for ESPN and had to pull over while driving because my eyes were full of tears. Little did I know then how big the game of baseball would become a part of my life. My TV career began to flourish again and my relationship with my family began to mend. January 2015 in a Buffalo Wild Wings my son was searching for a baseball team to play with and at that time he suggested something that would lead to my life changing in ways I couldn't even imagine. He suggested we start our own team and the fact I quit baseball at 15, no coaching experience, and no money to start one I still thought what a great idea. I fell in love with the game and being a part of helping youth. No other game teaches life like baseball and that passion led to 3 years later having 25 teams and almost 300 kids playing for me. I had no idea what I was doing and zero business skills but was fueling off my passion for loving being a part of the kids and their families lives. I eventually quit my job in TV to focus full time on baseball and then it happened again, the bottom fell out on me. This time was different in that I was doing all the right things, giving it my all, pouring my time and my money into helping others yet still ini June of 2018 the baseball program came to an end. Many reasons but it seemed no matter what I did, the success we once had was replaced by failure at every turn. The teams were great but off the field nothing could go right. It broke my spirit in a way words cant explain. I hated God for allowing something that was helping so many and saving me to come to an end. So here I was once again, broke, no car, no home and this time living in a homeless shelter for a short period. September 2018 I began again but this time something was different, I couldn't explain it or even understand it but I knew things were changing. Talk about a deep spiritual journey over the next six months and slowly but surely life began to make sense. I cried myself to sleep so many nights over the burden of living the life I had and losing so much but I started to understand the reasons for all the trials. I don't share a lot of that six months because that was my experience that i needed to have and understand on my own and its an experience I hope everyone has in their life at some point. I can say this with the most confidence possible, everything is going to be more than ok and for all of us, if we allow ourselves to understand the importance of the bad times we will one day we will not only have great days, when we have them we will recognize how blessed we are and learn to cherish and hold on to them. This life is so complicated and one huge puzzle that if not seen from a distance we will never understand. We get so caught up in self and the daily struggles that we don't take time to step back and see life for what it is. It’s up to you to figure out what that is but I will share this much with you, it’s all about love. If you could describe God in one word, its never-ending non judgmental love and we should be chasing that in ourselves with reckless abandon. How do you know and recognize anything that we are looking for, simply by understanding and having experienced the opposite of what we are looking for. This world, this life, both here and forevermore is perfectly designed for YOU. For you to succeed, find joy, find peace, and find purpose/ All of the things I swore to myself I would get back, well one by one I checked each box and the last one, my purpose, I can only say I know now I am here to help people. No matter who they are or from where they came, just help people and that can only be done in love. We go through life looking for ourselves but when we find that person we continue on in life wanting more than anything to see others find themselves. My dreams today? Bigger than words and I have no idea how I am going to accomplish many of them BUT I know that I am because God didn't bring me on this journey for nothing but for something so much bigger than myself. I have that one in a million story because God can use it to help others create their story! Greatest gift God gives is the experience of life! EVERYTHING works together for his Glory! No matter who you are, no matter where you are...I promise there is hope and a plan for your life better than any you can imagine. You are powerful beyond measure. NEVER GIVE UP!

    My Husband, that’s who I think of when I hear this song. He’s a youth pastor and he works and toils so hard for the youth of this generation. Somehow God shows him how to be present for our family and extended teens and young adults. His dreams are my dreams and I’m forever by his side. This song reminds me that God is always with us, “ I don’t know what’s around the bend.., but all I know is that my love ... it knows no end.” Thank you Jesus For being on our side. I love you Lord!

  65. M.... ....

    The devil likes to mess with our minds.
    He like to take away from our little time.
    He only has a little time here on earth.
    So he spends his time making us feel less worth.
    God has made us in his own image.
    Through God we have no limits.
    God can provides us with so much.
    The devil trys to make us lose touch.
    The devil uses his schemes in our lives.
    We keep digging ruts and take dives.
    The Lord gives us light away from the dark.
    God is always there when we need a spark.
    When you feel like you are giving in to temptation.
    Use The Word and God to fill your imagination.
    I have a very imaginative mind God has designed.
    I need to use it for his greatness and not mine.
    Sometimes I get caught up in what I feel is appealing.
    I have to realize it is temporary and just a feeling.
    God has a greater calling for them who follow him.
    Then the former enjoyment starts growing dim.
    But the devil try’s everything to ruin your plans.
    He has tried since the fall of woman and man.
    But know God is greater than he that is in this world.
    Remember that when the devil try’s to take you for a twirl.
    Forgive me of my sins and renew me everyday.
    For it is your path God that is straight.

  73. g.... c....

    Sadly christians are last on the list.... Bear: Our favorite thing by
    far to get from a fan is, “Hey, I’m Jewish but I still really like your
    music – I don’t know if that’s cool or not.” I respond to every direct
    message we get from somebody like that. I hate the idea that they
    somehow feel like I didn’t make the music for them, that we didn’t play
    music for everyone. The idea when you make music or you write songs and
    whatever and you have an audience in mind, I would say Christians are
    probably really late on that list, maybe last on that list, I don’t
    know, but it never comes into my mind as a target audience. I think
    that’s what Christian music is. I don’t think there’s anything wrong
    with Christian music. I just don’t think that’s what we are or what we
    do.

  81. R.... V....

    I wonder if my kids know how lucky they are to live in a house that plays NEEDTOBREATHE all of the time.....THey could have been born into a Florida Georgia LIne fan's house.

  82. A.... 1....

    I cry every time I hear/play/Listen to this song. God does NOT break his promises and I believe and know HE has PROMISED to NEVER Leave or Forsake us! My prayer for anyone who listens to this song is peace and healing through the ONE AND ONLY SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST. When it seems that there is not a way, HE will make a way. I am so blessed that God brought this AMAZING group, Needtobreathe, into my life when breathing seemed beyond my capacity(Emotionally, mentally and physically). God has blessed my life and this song is a wonderful testament to the never-ending LOVE that GOD has for us!

    Simplesmente maravilhosa esta música

  84. C.... K....

    This song reminds me that we’re never alone no matter how we might feel. Alcohol was a source of joy for me for about 20 years. I sincerely believed it made good days great and bad days better.

    In 2018, I asked God to remove my desire for drinking because I knew my love of alcohol was a barrier between us.

    Shortly after I said that prayer, my doctor told me that I needed to start a Ketogenic diet to lower my high cholesterol. For reasons I cannot explain, the diet prevented me from achieving even the smallest buzz from alcohol. Drinking now simply gets me dizzy and gives me a terrible hangover. Over time, all of my fond memories of alcohol which used to prompt me to drink more were replaced with thoughts of “what’s the point?”.

    During this time, I also began listening to a Bible podcast named 10 Week Bible Study which made me realize that everything the Bible says is actually true and that God’s love for us is amazing.

    In 2019, I fervently prayed that God would replace my desire for worldly things with a burning passion to grow closer to Jesus, learn His word, and carry out His plan for me.

    It was as though He had been waiting for me to say ”come in” and truly mean it. My worldly desires plummeted within days of saying that prayer. I lost all remaining interest I had in alcohol. TV shows which I used to binge watch for hours each day became so irrelevant to me that I cancelled our Hulu and Netflix subscriptions.

    God didn’t stop there, though. A powerful hunger grew in me to pray, read scripture, have “quiet time” with God, and listen to Christian music. I also began to see God’s guiding hand in even the most mundane parts of my life. Soon enough, I caught myself having conversations with Jesus throughout each day.

    As my relationship with Jesus grew, I began to feel an amazing sense of joy. I’d find myself waking up in the morning actually excited about what God might do today or happily dancing in the kitchen with my daughters at the end of a hard day’s work even though I was bone tired. The phrase ”My cup runneth over” finally made sense to me. It was wonderful!

    The best part is that my joy never went away! I now realize that this is because my joy is not an emotion I can control like a muscle. I cannot “flex” it into existence through certain thoughts or actions. Instead, my joy comes from being in God’s presence which is something He offers to all of us freely. All we have to do is to chase after Jesus with all of our heart.

    I waited way too long to trust Jesus. Please don’t make my mistake. Jesus is very real. The salvation He offers each of us is very real. And the joy that comes from that knowledge and being in God’s presence each day will transform your entire life!

    C.... K....

    such a great testimony thanks sharing Chris, sounds like God big plans ur life🙌

    C.... K....

    So awesome. I'm glad that was shared. This along with many other backstories/testimonies will hopefully get more people closer to Jesus. God is good, all the time.

    Rest In Peace the legend Mean Gene Okerlund. Couldn’t imagine a better interviewer and a wrestler than Mean Gene.

    R.I.P to a legend that will never be forgotten R.I.P Mean Gene. Gone but will never be Forgotten.
    And I definitely hope that the bury with you ass up so that all those critics can definitely kiss your arse.

  97. J.... L....

    I hate to be nitpicky but isn't this theologically incorrect? God "doesn't know what's around the bend"

    J.... L....

    God is omnipresent so technically he knows what's around all the bends.

    J.... L....

    The inspiration for this song was the band’s fans’ loyalty through all the years, I think this song shows the perspective of a faithful friend rather than God.
