This week’s featured song story comes to us from Brandon Lake. We’re excited to share with you the story behind his song “HELP!.”
“It’s probably the truest, realest song to me in this past season because it has been the cry of my heart when it comes to anxiety, feelings of depression & panic attacks. I pray that so many people would hear this song and that it would encourage them to cry out for help. And that they would receive freedom and deliverance. God is always faithful to answer.” –Brandon Lake

From the album HELP!
“HELP!” Lyrics
My mind feels like a circus
Tamin’ tigers, flamin’ torches
I can’t deal with my own conscience
The truth and lies entangled
Dodging arrows at every angle
Why does life feel like a jungle?
Come take this weight off my chest
Come put this chaos to rest
I think I’m losing my mind
When the panic attacks and I’ve got my back up against the wall
Come and invade the fear and the flames, hear me when I call
My faith gives way to crisis
What, when, who will help me fight this?
Hear me screamin’ through the sirens
And I feel it gettin’ stronger
It’s Your voice that gives me power
One by one, those demons cry for
Help! (help) Help! (help)
When the panic attacks and I’ve got my back up against the wall
(Help, help)
Come and invade the fear and the flames, hear me when I call
I lift my eyes Up to the skies
Where does my help come from?
My one defense
My truest friend
Where does my help come from?
