    Behind The Song: Zach Williams Shares The Heart Behind His Song “The Struggle”

    By Abby Young | Christian News | 0 comment | 25 August, 2021 | 4

    This week’s featured song story comes to us from Zach Williams. We’re excited to share with you the story behind his song “The Struggle.”

    “Honestly this is a pretty personal song for me. It was one of the first songs, if not the first song I wrote after giving my life to the Lord. I just remember thinking about the things I’d done in my life and where I’d been. Honestly it was really just a deep, inside, raw look at my life and my wife’s life. It’s the things that we struggled with before finding Jesus but also the new life that we found once we gave our hearts to Him.” – Zach Williams

    From the album Rescue Story – Deluxe Edition.

    “The Struggle” Lyrics

    He woke up this morning
    To an angel in his bed
    There was a devil in the bottle he was holding in his hand
    With head still full of whiskey and his eyes now full of tears
    He dusted off a bible that he hadn’t read in years
    And he said I am tired, I am torn and I can’t take it any more
    You see this bottle has been my only friend
    But here I am my heart to you I give
    Oh Father can you take away these tears
    She struggles with addiction
    She struggles to fit in
    She takes too much medication to cover up her tears
    One pill to make her happy
    Too many make her sad
    Then she notices the bible In the hotel by her bed
    She says, “I am weary I am worn” and I can’t take it any more
    You see this bottle has been my only friend
    Here I am my heart to you I give
    Father can you wash away these sins
    Then the sun came out and the skies turned blue and the pain they knew was gone
    And as the old life died a new life it was born
    It was a life they never knew
    Until they followed you
