Lydia Laird – I’ll Be Okay

Tuesday, 26 October 2021 by Lynne Gregory
Lydia Laird

The song, I’ll Be Okay by Lydia Laird, is the latest release from her first self-titled album which was released in August 2020.

Lydia is from East Texas, but her family served as missionaries in Romania when she was young. She’s the 7th child of 10 and she remembers becoming a Christian at the age of 4. Lydia wrote her first song when she was 9 years old. You can learn more about Lydia on her website, LydiaLaird.com.

Debut EP: Lydia Laird

Lydia wrote I’ll Be Okay from a place of depression and anxiety, and it is a good reminder of God’s presence with us in the dark places. In this song, she is being open and vulnerable about her personal struggles.  Lydia shares that even though she can see the storm and hear the thunder, she knows she’ll be okay because “He (Jesus) is in the boat with me.” 

In the following video, Lydia tells the story behind the song, I’ll Be Okay.

The Story Behind the Song, “I’ll Be Okay”, by Lydia Laird

If you’ve ever suffered loss or were overwhelmed with feelings of hopelessness, you can relate to this song.  Lydia reminds us that God is with us and we will be okay. However, even if you don’t feel like you’ll be okay, you can relate to the bridge where she asks God to “make me okay.” Lydia has listed organizations, apps, books, music, podcasts, and more for people like her who struggle with mental health on her website.

Lydia Laird – I’ll Be Okay (Official Performance Video)

Lyrics

Give me peace when I am tossed and frightened
Lost among the waves
Give me hope when I am doubt and fears are
Clouding up my faith
Would You come and move the mountains
'Cause I'm too weak to climb
Promise that You're with me in this fight
I can hear the thunder, but I'm okay
'Cause You're with me
I know You will cover me, I'll be safe
'Cause You're with me
I'll be okay
I'll be okay
I'll be okay
I'll be okay
Tragedy could hold the sharpest blade
Against my skin
Threatening to open all the wounds
I've tried to mend
Would You come and be the healer
That I know I've seen before
You've promised me that I can be restored
CHORUS
Make me okay
Make me okay
Make me okay
Make me okay

Scriptural Encouragement:

Mark 4:35-41 Jesus is “in the boat” with you

Deuteronomy 31:8  The Lord will never leave you

Matthew 28:18-20  Jesus is with you always
