Abide | Aaron Williams - Live at The Worship Initiative 

I just heard this song two days ago while waiting in the hospital's waiting room, my 11 years old son was having surgery. It was so powerful and comforting listening this song during the hardest time of my life. I played it over and over until the end of the surgery whne the doctor came to tell us our son was stable and the success of the surgery even though it was a high risk procedure. The lord performed a miracle in our son’s life. Thank you Jesus

I just heard this song for the first time this week..We were homeless, staying in a hotel for 15 months, and then when the time came that God opened the door for our home..I was in complete and total awe. To this day, I still can’t believe it. My heart is overwhelmed. As we were in the hotel, everyday was literally as if we were in the fire, getting purified, refined, stripped of old selves..it was a constant battle. This song, literally every word is exactly what I would pray absolutely every day. I cried a whole lot!!! I struggle with knowing that we do deserve our home, and that the light at the end of the tunnel is truly Jesus Christ. I know for a fact that without Him, I am a nobody. I cannot be without Him. Jesus is the Lord of Lord and King of kings, He is who I have learned to depend on for all my life.

Since I first heard this song about a week ago, I keep listening to it over and over and praying, “Lord, teach me to abide.”

For the last 2 weeks I've been spending the first hour of the morning with the Lord and the last hour at night before I go to sleep. This has just been so awesome to do this. I wish I would have done it sooner. It seemed like there were so many other things that took preference but not anymore because nothing is more important to me than my relationship with the Lord. I saw a sign the other day that said that we say we want to spend eternity with the Lord, but we don't want to spend time with him here. Thank you Lord for allowing me to spend time with you everyday.

Missionary here. This is the absolute song of my heart. Without Jesus, we don't have even one grain of rice or one opportunity to share the Gospel. It is ALL HIM. I depend on You, Father~!

Last night at my first prayer meeting with people I had only just met through the jail chaplain, one of the men brought his guitar and we all sang this Beautiful Song, and prayed. THIS SONG SANG TO MY WEARY SOUL!!!🙌🏼❤️✝️❤️🙌🏼we’re starting a jail ministry to deliver the Hope, and Salvation through Christ Jesus. Draw me close Lord, and teach me to Abide, All for Your Glory God🙌🏼❤️✝️❤️🙌🏼Blessings and Love to You All ❤️✝️❤️

I AM A SINNER. Please pray that Father God will give me strength to change my lifestyle. NO matter what though. no matter my state of mind. I will ALWAYS worship. ALWAYS.

From the very first note of this song, I was taken straight into the Lord’s presence. So anointed.

It's been 16 months since my 32 year old was in icu for 9 days due to a tumor. I played it over and over.

For my waking breath for my daily bread I depend on You, I depend on You For the sun to rise for my sleep at night I depend on You, I depend on You You're the way the truth and the life You're the well that never runs dry I'm the branch and You are the vine Draw me close and teach me to abide Where the Spirit leads as I'm following I depend on You, I depend on You For the victories still in front of me I depend on You, I depend on You You're the way the truth and the life You're the well that never runs dry I'm the branch and You are the vine Draw me close and teach me to abide Be my strength my song in the night Be my all my treasure my prize I am Yours forever Your mine Draw me close and teach me to abide When I pass through death as I enter rest I depend on You, I depend on You For eternal life to be raised with Christ I depend on You, I depend on You You're the way the truth and the life You're the well that never runs dry I'm the branch and You are the vine Draw me close and teach me to abide Be my strength my song in the night Be my all my treasure my prize I am Yours forever Your mine Draw me close and teach me to abide Here I am Lord Would you teach me to abide Teach me Would you teach me I depend on You, I depend on You Yes, I depend on You, I depend on You Oh, oh I depend on You, Yes, I depend on You I depend on You, I depend on You

Apart from Christ Jesus we can do nothing. Praise God for all He is and all He has done.

My grandchildren sang this song tonight as part of their music camp presentation.... beautiful!

Help me again Jesus, please make my mind clean from viewing sin again. Give me the mind of Christ.

Heard a few lines of this song in my car this morning for the first time. Back in my apartment, I found it on RU-vid. That was no accident, as I needed this incredible song - thank You, Lord!! ❤

I love this song, Sir. Bless The Lord and bless you, brother. Thank you.

I am pushing 77. Everything is coming to an end. This song greatly blessed me. Thank you, dear heart.

This song would be special to sing at a memorial service, the lyrics are appropriate for the passed believer, and also for the hearers at the service 🤍

Jesus, help me😢, please help me. I want to feel your presence today.

I can’t stop listening to this song..the words are so beautiful and their meaning reaches the depth of my soul. Soo grateful!!

My heart's cry! The cry of the Bride! What a treasure this worship song is!

This song makes me think of all the prophets and kings in the Bible just gradually praising the same God that would ultimately come to earth for His friends. It especially makes me think of David dancing before the LORD and Solomon requesting divine wisdom above anything else. Such an awesome God of relationship we have

This song has sealed my new year 2023 resolution "to abide in Jesus". Thankyou very much for this very anointed song. God bless. 🙏💛🙏

Lord Jesus ,as you always heal, save my beloved Son Zion, fill him with your Holly Spirit of GOD in almighty Christ who saves ,and Save our Children from the snare of the evil one we ask in your Almighty name our refuge Rock, Sheild ,because I trust only you, amen Lord ❤️‍🔥✝️🛐👣❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

May this be my prayer throughout every waking moment. Beautiful song for our beautiful Savior.

Amen.I depend on You Lord, You alone, every moment,every hour❤️🙏 Draw me close and teach me to abide .Be my strength and song in the night My 1st time to hear this song and I love it . It uplifts my spirit and soul. Thank you for this worship video ❤️🙏 Beautiful song and lyrics. Beautiful voice. God bless🙏❤️

I love this song, and when I go home, I want to dance in the universe with Jesus to this song, ballroom style .

Amen Glory be to the Almighty Lord our saviour. Thank you Lord for your grace and mercy

If ever there was an anthem for my soul….the deepest need and cry of my heart….oh Lord Teach me to abide in every season. You alone are the Way, the Truth, and Life forever!

Wow, such a beautiful song that sang beautifully-really comes from the heart❤️ So powerful🙏🏻

Listening to this song every day will change you 🩵

If we all understood we can do absolutely nothing without Him. Praise God for you and your ministry!

When I heard the song a few days ago it immediately touched my heart! So worshipful and it gives such a nice perspective of our dependence on our good good Father! Will definitely be singing this soon and in the future! Thanks Aaron!

John C15 v5 I am the vine, and you are the branches. He who abides in me, and I in him, will bring forth much fruit, for apart from me, you can do nothing.(Jesus)

Beautiful song & lyrics. Yeshua:“Abide in Me.” 🕎🔥🕊️

Beautiful oh my the Cello plays my Heart❤❤❤

Hi Aaron your song makes me cry like a river.. your awesome singer and God bless you for that to touch people’s lives

I'm not intending to tear down or criticize with my thoughts. There is a place and time in our lives to DEPEND on God. Holy Spirit teaches us and reveals the things of God to us. We move from dependence to ABIDING in and finding our security in GOD. As we find our place of abiding, we/I find my worship of God to then be growing and maturing. It's not that we ever lose being dependent on God's help and provision, but it's a growing out of dependency and into maturity. I love the song and the picture it paints. I also love the picture of abiding with God. With Christ. To me, it's a deeper place, a more intimate place. A place of having beautiful relationship and encounters with Jesus. ❤

This song is so amazing. This crew blessed a recent conference in Cedar Rapids. The conference name was Abide. This was the song that just happened to be the unofficial song of the weekend! Thanks Worship Initiative!

I can’t believe this beautiful worship song only has 13k views. It’s better than some withs millions of views. Tremendously moving and glorious to our Almighty Savior and King Jesus.

Yes I depend on you Lord Jesus. Your Word says "for you can do nothing without me"

I love these guys, they are tremendous worshipers in their performance. They are humble, they are simple and their music is beautiful! I can enjoy them every year at the Abide Conference in my city. I wake up every day listening to this song as the first one on my Spotify. This song says EVERYTHING I would like to say to the Lord as soon as I wake up! Thank you Aaron, for a beautiful song! Amy, I love the way you play too. I know your heart was there when you wrote it Aaron! This song is a treasure for me!

Just hearing this song for the first time... where have i been? Wow - what a beautiful song, but what a powerful message. Thanks team for this.

We sang this at church today. So beautiful :)

So Beautiful!! ❤❤ This song brings tears to my eyes and joy to my heart!! Lovely music and lyrics!! "I depend on You Jesus, on You alone". Teach me Lord to abide in You! 🙏❤

Beyond a Declaration !! A LOVE Song , Heaven sent ! Smacks of King David & the Apostle Paul & EVERY Authentic Child of GOD

Words and music that help me abandon myself to His care no matter the pain of life. Thank you for such encouragement to trust Him and freedom to sing these words out to the Lord of all.

Thank you so much for writing this song - so lovely!!!!!🥰

Experiencing the Depths of Jesus Christ by Jeanne Guyon, and Waiting on God by Andrew Murray are 2 excellent books on learning to abide. Be blessed!

Such an amazing song!!! Thank You Lord for Your unconditional love n grace!! And thank you Aaron for using the gift God has given you! I live in pain 24/7/365 w over a dozen chronic illnesses n it can be hard esp at night. But this song is such a blessing n a great reminder of all God gives us!! Sometimes when life is painful it can be hard to remember those things so this is a much needed beautiful reminder to rest in God's love n goodness esp during the painful times. He has us!! He has you! May God bless you n your family!

Thanks for these positive words of truth. To God be the power and the glory. God is magnified! Blessings!❤❤❤

We must give up our rights and surrender in order to abide. It's a hard lesson learned. Jesus surrendered his right to be God when he became man, he gave up all his rights to abide with the fathers will.

Sang this at Church tonight and it took me to another level of Worship! 🙌

Beautiful and deeply comforting. Thank you!

Heavenly singing a prayer I need to confess to abide with my sweet Jesus 💕

This song is one of my all time favorites!! I listen to it daily !

This is such an anointed song...sung and played with so much reverence..Thankyou !!! Love NZ

Beautifully Anointed of Holy Spirit❣️❣️❣️🙌🙌🙌🎶🎶🎶

My life “survival” theme - so thankful I can abide in his presence and strength!

Absolutely beautiful! I’m sharing this with everyone! What a beautiful way of expressing the greatness of our Lord and Savior, and our need to abide in Him.

Yes Jesus, 🌈 teach me to abide with you, Will you teach to abide with you my Lord 🌈 so I know you more and more Ask and you shall receive I depend on you Jesus 🌈

THANK YOU Aaron for this wonderful song-yes LORD I DEPEND ON YOU draw me close+teach me to abide

Beautiful song... ❤ but... something I am beginning to notice more and more... is ... He could be singing this to his wife. Yes, if you read the scriptures you know to whom he sings, but for someone who doesn't know the scriptures, NOT till the end, and even then, only ONCE does he mention the LORD. It could so easily be interjected at the end of the "I depend on YOU,(YESHUA)". "Yeshua, teach us to abide"But still... beautiful, and my prayer. ❤❤❤

Oh my! This is lovely! The words, the way it is played and sung…just a beautiful hymn for today!

Thank you for such a beautiful song with words that touch my soul. ❤❤❤❤

I love listening 🎶to this, it calms my soul. It is my plea. let me Abide! I do depend on Him and He has always been Faithful!❤❤❤

Lord, give me a hunger and thirst for you again this day, thank you.

Praise God. Thank you sweet Jesus. Yes Lord, I depend on you. And Yes Lord, I trust and love you.

Love this song. Miss you brother.

yes; it's my prayer today.

Heard many times. Yes i depend on God every core of my life. Abide in Him. 😁
