By Your Side is a song by Tenth Avenue North. It was released as the second single off of their album, Over and Underneath, in 2008.
Meaning
“There are a couple of lines in ‘By Your Side’ that to me really encapsulate the whole song. One is in the second verse that says, ‘Why are you looking for love? Why are you still searching as if I’m not enough? To where will you go child? To where will you run?’ And the last verse it says, ‘Look at these hands and my side, they swallowed the grave on that night, when I drank the world’s sin so that I could carry you in and give you life.’ ‘By Your Side’ is just a call to anyone who’s struggling or fighting against God thinking they have to work to earn it. It’s calling them to stop looking for what you can do for God and fix your gaze upon what God has done for you. Let that motivate you. We love because He first loved us.” - Mike Donehey (lead singer of Tenth Avenue North)[1]
Lyrics[2]
| Lyrics
Why are you striving these days? Why are you trying to earn grace? Why are you crying? Let me lift up your face Just don't turn away
Why are you still searching? As if I'm not enough? To where will you go child, Tell me where will you run? To where will you run?
In the dead of night whenever you call Please don't fight these hands that are holding you My hands are holding you
They swallowed the grave, on that night When I drank the world's sin So I could carry you in And give you life
In the dead of night whenever you call Please don't fight these hands that are holding you My hands are holding you
In the dead of night whenever you call Please don't fight these hands that are holding you My hands are holding you
And I want you to know That I, I'll love you I'll never let you go
In the dead of night whenever you call Please don't fight these hands that are holding you My hands are holding you
In the dead of night whenever you call Please don't fight these hands that are holding you My hands are holding you
