From the recording TERRENCE HART
What the song “Make Me Stronger” is about:
It is a powerful prayer-like song about seeking redemption, forgiveness, and inner strength after a fall from grace. The narrator admits to past mistakes—losing love, losing faith, and turning to destructive habits like alcohol. Struggling with guilt, regret, and a deep sense of loss, he turns to God, pleading for the strength to change, make things right, and be set free from the weight of his past. The recurring chorus evokes a longing for freedom and renewal, using imagery from nature—wild horses, wind, rivers—to symbolize the soul’s desire to break free and start again. It’s a deeply emotional song of humility, surrender, and hope for healing.
Lyrics
MAKE ME STRONGER
Terrence Hart
[VERSE]
Lord make me stronger
I need your strength to carry on
Lord make me stronger
I know that I’m about to fall
[VERSE]
Lord make me stronger
If only I could turn back time
Lord make me stronger
I wish there was another way
[CHORUS]
Like a horse running wild in the valley
Like the wind blowing down on the mountains
Like a river flowing into the sea
Set me free
[VERSE]
Lord make me stronger
I took a road I shouldn’t have
Lord make me stronger
I need more time to make things right
[VERSE]
Lord make me stronger
I broke her heart and lost my way
Lord make me stronger
I should have never gone away
[CHORUS]
Like a horse running wild in the valley
Like the wind blowing down on the mountains
Like a river flowing into the sea
Set me free
[CHORUS]
Like a horse running wild in the valley
Like the wind blowing down on the mountains
Like a river flowing into the sea
Set me free
[VERSE]
Lord make me stronger
I let the whisky drown my soul
Lord make me stronger
I left my faith out in the cold
[VERSE]
Lord make me stronger
Just take my hand lead the way
Lord make me stronger
I beg you on my knees and pray
[CHORUS]
Like a horse running wild in the valley
Like the wind blowing down on the mountains
Like a river flowing into the sea
Set me free
[CHORUS]
Like a horse running wild in the valley
Like the wind blowing down on the mountains
Like a river flowing into the sea
Set me free
Set me free…
