    Chorus:
    That's when you need someone
    Someone that you, you can call
    When all your faith is gone
    And it feels like you can't go on
    Let it be me
    Let it be me
    If it's a friend that you need
    Let it be me
    Let it be me

    I was about to undergo heart surgery when a nurse asked, " Who is your favorite artist? I said Ray LaMontane. A few minutes later, a song was blaring through overhead speakers. As I was being prepped, the outcome of the surgery was unclear so I enjoyed Ray's music one more time as it were my last. It wasn't and I'm a fan for life.

      One of the most beautiful R.L. songs I have heard is 'We'll Make it Through'. During a particularly frightening time with my health, I found this song and listened to it with my wife. We were both in tears as the poignant lyrics resonated to the deepest part of our emotions. If you or someone you love is going through a difficult personal situation, listen to this song...it has remarkable healing powers.

    I listened to this album while driving late one summers night between Charleston, SC and Savanna, GA....all alone, on my own schedule, with the windows down and Ray’s voice on full volume. It was an utterly intoxicating experience.

    There comes a time
    A time in everyone's life
    Where nothing seems to go your way
    Where nothing seems to turn out right
    There may come a time
    You just can't seem to find your place
    And for every door you open
    Seems like you get two slammed in your face
    That's when you need someone
    Someone that you, you can call
    When all your faith is gone
    And it feels like you can't go on
    Let it be me
    Let it be me
    If it's a friend that you need
    Let it be me
    Let it be me
    Feels like you're always coming up last
    Pockets full of nothing and you got no cash
    No matter where you turn you ain't got no place to stand
    You reach out for something and they slap your hand
    Now, I remember all too well
    Just how it feels to be all alone
    You feel like you'd give anything
    For just a little place you can call your own
    That's when you need someone
    Someone that you, you can call
    When all your faith is gone
    It feels like you cant go on
    Let it be me
    Let it be me
    If it's a friend you need
    Let it be me
    Let it be me
    Let it be me
    Let it be me
    If it's a friend you need
    Let it be me
    Let it be me, let it be me

    I listened to this nonstop after the earthquake in Haiti in 2010. My best friend was in the UN building when I collapsed. For 17 days we hoped against hope that we’d find him. One of the worst days of my life when we discovered he didn’t make it. This song still makes me weep but I’ll always be grateful for my dear friend and everything we shared. 😢

Your lyrics are so meaningful and profound. The look of amazement on my face when I read them. I ask myself, where does this gift come from. How is he able to convey in song what I am thinking in my mind and feeling in my heart. You have a special talent and gift given to you by #JehovahShalom. Never take it for granted or waste it. Millions of fans benefit from your gift of music 😀👍👍👍🎸🥁🎹🎻🎸💖💜💙💚🧡💛❤️

I miss someone I was in a relationship with over 30 years ago, how f'ed up is that? My 1st love, almost did me in when he broke up with me but I've never forgotten him.

Instead, how about we pray that God opens all these doors to get me home to you. Instead, of dying; focus on giving me everything you were to scared to give me before. I love you, 5Cents. ❤ I always have.

It’s been a few days over three months now but it feels like I just got the call. I love you so much. I never thought you would be gone so soon. 24 years with you wasn’t enough but I’m happy you’re out of pain. I would give anything to be able to call you once more and talk about all the things we were going to do this summer. I go back to college on Saturday and it’s killing me to know I can’t just call you or FaceTime with you anymore.

      I’m so sorry your feeling this way. I struggled with depression off and on for most of my life. Hated the meds, so self medicated for a while. But, ultimately I conquered it, I think. For me it was the revelation that those intense emotions can be brought on by a physiological, chemical imbalance. So, now when those dark thoughts and sinking emotions creep in, I know there is a light at the end of the tunnel if I am proactive about intervention. This might not apply to you at all, but I wanted to share just in case it resonates. One thing I know we have in common is that we’re moved by music in a substantial way. That is a blessing, my friend. I hope you find your peace.
