Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Lord let me be a pillar,
Lift me up and let me stand.
With your gracious precious love,
help me extend your Holy hand.
I am so unworthy, but your work I want to do.
So let me be a pillar and I’ll testify to you.

(Chorus)
And as I stand, I’ll hold my head high
Reaching to You, show me what to do.
Let me give strength to those who are weak.
Let me share your love to those who will seek.
Lord, let me be a pillar, let me be a pillar,
Lord, let me be a pillar, and for You I will stand.

(Verse 2)
Make me solid like the rock,
make me a fountain in your house.
Let your light shine to be seen in me,
Lift me up Lord bring me to my knees.
Help me be strong to stand through hard times.
So, let me be a pillar,
For those to seek and finally find.

(Chorus)
And as I stand, I’ll hold my head high
Reaching to You, show me what to do.
Let me give strength to those who are weak.
Let me share your love to those who will seek.

(Bridge)
It might bring someone to salvation,
And, then it just might reveal your redemption.
Oh yes it will!
It might be an answer to a prayer.
For someone who’s called on your name.

(End Tag)
Lord, let me be a pillar, let me be a pillar,
Lord, let me be a pillar, and for You I will stand.
I will stand!

Backstory

Let Me Be A Pillar | Story Behind Song

I owe so much to the wonderful people God has placed in my life that have been “pillars” for me, from my mother, my grandparents, aunts, uncles, Nazarene and Christian family across the world. The college and Army buddies and those who are my mentors. Even friends from my High School days that thanks to Social Media, we have reconnected. There is my family, my #1 fans, my husband, my precious children,
adoring sister and brother. These people push me and continue to help mold me into who I am right now.

Now it’s my turn. I have to be that pillar for my own children and friends. I want to be that person that is there when no one else is, but there sharing God’s love and shinning His light. The truth is I can’t do that, I have no power on my own. It is Christ who lives in me that shines through my ugly humanness to share a piece of Him to a hurting world.

I always was a person that believed I could make a difference. “Let Me Be a Pillar” is my prayer. I am nothing on my own but “I can do all things through Christ” and I can be a “pillar” for the next person to bring them closer to Him and His kingdom.

Update 2007

I was once told by an industry professional that this was the worst song they ever heard. I mean this person really raked me over the coals. For a brief moment it made me want to stop writing and singing. But this is what God called me to do. I sing it anyway because God gave it to me. When I sing this song live people are impacted as the Holy Spirit sings through me. So in short, I could care less that it may not exactly be “industry radio playable” in one person’s opinion.

The message is solid and I have sold a lot of copies of this song. I care more that God has called me to put this song out there to the masses for His Glory. I didn’t write this song to be popular. I wrote it because God told me to. I love “Let Me Be A Pillar.” I will not hide my light under a bushel. I will keep writing, growing, perfecting my craft, my gift and in that process my prayer is always that I may be a Pillar for Jesus!
