Lyrics:
I chased you into the light
Yeah I stayed there to see myself pure
All the ashes and scars they fail
They pale in comparison to yours
There were footprints the size of the universe
There were fortunes that no one could earn
So I chased you farther still
And I hope that I never return
From the river's mouth
To the mountain peak
Through the great divide and the valley deep
I need you to carry me
Carry me
Carry me, I'm on my way
But I'm in too deep
I need you to carry me
You were calling me
Into the deep
Into waters that no map could find
You were calling me
Out beyond my fears
Where my darkness finds rest in your light
I found a fortress where I could surrender
Where my shame didn't hide what I lacked
And so I chased you out farther still
Cause I know that I ain't never coming back
I found a place where the past was forgiven
Where my mistakes met a grace I couldn't earn
And so I piled up my excuses and defenses in the night
Then I lit a match, stepped back and watched them burn
From the day I was born to the end of these seas
I need you to carry me

It's so cool how "country boys" from a small Southeast town (my hometown!) and guys who grew up in California surfing the West Coast can come together and make a song like this! Love it!

[@KManwarren]

I appreciate every song that takes the opportunity to remind me that I am pure, not because of anything I've done or will do, but because I stepped (stumbled and some days dragged myself) into the perfect light of Christ. Never gets old. Thanks guys.

[@jaysangel8090]

Yes we are all beautifully broken. Love to you sister 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@Marcyandthesix]

Amen!!!!!!!!

[@kimdacey8618]

Amen🙏🙌

[@HeIljumper]

Me too

[@travisnorrie1002]

Come as you are, but don’t stay as you were. If the truth is in you, you will walk just as he walked, in Torah

[@cassieleonard1433]

I’ve been waiting for this collab for about 12 years.

[@davidmckesey7119]

We all have.

[@AwakenTheDawn2004]

Absolutely!

[@TheQueenyleen]

At least!!! And it’s so good.

[@giovannylopez7557]

For real!!!!!!!!!!

[@michaelalemke7399]

Same!

[@sandygrunwaldt1780]

A Beautiful Song, I'm so happy to hear that you guys are still singing Christian songs.

[@koinoniaconnection2773]

Absolutely refreshing! God is coming back for his battle weary church soon. I have actually been thinking about the “Footprints” story then to hear this. I am definitely praying the Lord carry all of us through. Blessings on you all for using your amazing talents to honor the One who gave them to you.

[@helives2630]

I love Bear's lyrical gymnastics. Such a succinct and precise turn from one word to the next like a sports car navigating hairpin turns at a high rate of speed. Classy and stylish with a whole lot of heart. Love Needtobreathe for this very reason.

[@JonHulett]

GREATEST. DUO. OF. ALL. TIME.

[@JillAlexander]

Hallelujah HALLELUJAH ❤️🙏 Thank You Jesus, this exactly what my spirit needed! Carry me Jesus I pray amen 💕

[@ryanshaughnessy6160]

Can we have a whole album of Bear and Jon collaborating together with their bands?!

[@pedrobrito3654]

Pleeeease, would be the best album ever

[@lovealwayswins7053]

Its called "into the mystery tour"!

[@egodumpster]

Yessss !!!!!

[@cg23hayes26]

Both bands are literally so freaking great. And switchfoot is legendary 🙏🏼

[@heartsandmindsathome]

“My darkness finds rest in Your Life.” Amen 💛

[@johncordes9504]

"I found a place where the past was forgiven Where my mistake found a grace I couldn't earn Yeah so I piled up my excuses and defenses in the night I lit a match stepped back and watched 'em burn" Lyrically genius description of what we all find in the cross.

[@CBNuttree]

That set of lyrics has stuck with me for years. I hold them very dear in m y heart.

[@elliottdmann]

There is an incredible amount of both talent and hair in this video.

[@dominickfailla]

Oooh that melody for the line “in the universe” so good

[@wenamena143]

I swear their songs deserve more views 😭 so many people missing out on their music I'm grateful to have come to this band 😌

[@janaina19902008]

Carry me Jesus i need you, i love your song ❤

[@misslala59]

Needtobreathe. The most underrated band out there. I could listen to them all day. I almost already do.

[@annemarieb1334]

Loved this, never heard of john foreman or switchfoot. But he/they just gained a new fan.

[@dannycancino3614]

Um. Oh man. You’ve stumbled onto a great songwriter in Foreman and a really, really good band in Switchfoot.

[@justincase315]

@@dannycancino3614 TRUE STATEMENT!!!

[@satownrules]

If I may suggest a few of Switchfoot's notable songs to start you off with. Check out "This is Home", "Twentyfour", "Dare You To Move", "Meant To Live", and my personal favorite, "Only Hope". There are many others, but this list would be too long.

[@staceykelly4211]

I love "It's You" from The Legend of Chin a million years ago.

[@Forbess1234]

They are a seminal band in Christian Music. Made a pretty sweet surfing movie as well. The real deal.

[@justincase315]

Wow, great message, the Lyrics speak VOLUMES, BUT/AND the VOICES singing them? Two of the best, and TOGETHER ??! LOVE IT, harmonies killer! but Glorifying God is always the goal, GREAT JOB/SONG OVERALL

[@benezerrapsang2382]

[@radnowonward]

This song gives me healing tears. I sing these words to Creator, Grandmother, Grandfather, my ancestors, my spirit family, to my tribe, my descendants-- but especially to Yeshua & Maria. Thank you so much to these gifted musicians for inspiring me to keep going.

[@denzilcaskey5890]

Amazing ☺️

[@lenziedixon]

I love the opening line in this song ♡

[@AwakenTheDawn2004]

Yes! Deep stuff 👐🌞🏃🏻‍♀️🙏

[@estheraruka6374]

When this song was first released my life was a mess (partly of my own making) that I could barely recognise. As I now watch and listen to this acoustic version, I am in a much better place. Can confidently say He carried me. And He will continue to.

[@justaperson803]

PLEASE PLAY THIS ON TOUR!!!

[@lovealwayswins7053]

Of course, you silly!
