If you're reading this then have a nice day have fun and don't stress just thank god for another day and live ur life and do the things u want to do and don't worry about what people say cuz u only live once💕💕
Mine to but for me i had my first child at 14 i struggled to raise him his dad and i did not stay together because he was abusive i felt the world on my shoulders
Almost 15 yrs later and I finally find it!! It stayed on repeat on my headphones. Oh the memories and nostalgia with TobyMac!! Thank you so much for this
I think that the lyrics go a little deeper that "Hush little baby don't you cry, Daddy's gunna sing you a lullaby." Hush little baby" refers to the fact that we are God's children and "don't you cry" means do not despair and " Daddy's gunna sing you a lullaby" means that God is with you and He will comfort you in your times of need. Awesome song!
+Chris Koro i'm just having a tobymac night and listening to so many of his songs here on youtube and i'm really surprised at how many songs i still can sing along to! :D
This song reminds me of someone that I know that had her first baby when she was 17 and made something of herself. She now has three children, works full-time and put herself through her Nursing school. She realized the guy who fathered her first child was a "Loser" and wasn't going to support the baby financially. Also, she gave her life to Jesus Christ and is now married with three children. God does hear prayers. He makes the tough times in life and turns them into beautiful things.
NLS S. Bah who cares? Remember that people have their reasons for staying single. I do not want to get a divorce and having to support my family through child support payments. Remember, we are all human beings too. Hahahahahahaha.
Wow I haven't listened to this song in many years. I wish I could tell Tobymac thank you for this hit. I was the little girl with the pressure of the world on her shoulders and ready to give up! But I'm still here!!! Hallelujah!!! ❤️🤗🙏🏾
I finally sat down after a hectic day and when I acknowledged Him, God just said: “Hush little baby don’t you cry, Daddy’s gonna sing you a lullaby” and I busted out laughing! I haven’t heard this song in years but loved the Spanish guitar and the video and the theme. One thing I never noticed: when the baby cried, the tear drop “plopped” onto the boyfriend/dad’s head like a raindrop wake-up call from God. Hence the split frame with the mom and baby and the dad in the bottom. Cleverly done. I missed that watching this as a pre-teen/teen.
+Melonie Zappa Me too! I remember staying up until late on Saturday nights just to watch some Toby Mac, Skillet, John Reuben, etc. music videos. Such good times, haha.
I remember sitting in my room as a teenager, either drawing or working on homework and listening to Somebody's Watching for the first time on our Christian radio station♡
" Therefore tell the children of Yisra'el, I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Mitzrim, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm, and with great judgments:" Exodus 6:6 HNV
I luv dis song...my name is Irene nd I'm a single mother of four nd was able to relate to dis song to da point..it really helped nd lifted my head..Thank U for this beautiful song..
Awesome song and God bless TobyMac and his band and being a light to so many. Christ is a free gift for us all and brings salvation, freedom, and transformation. “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Romans 10:13 “Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” John 8:36 “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” 2 Corinthians 5:17 God bless us all!!
Hush little baby baby don't you cry Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby Everything's gonna be alright The Lord's gonna answer your prayer tonight Hush little baby don't you cry Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby Everything's gonna be alright The Lord's gonna answer your prayer Last night you had a dream you was the homecoming queen Today you're 18, happy birthday Irene Quit school you had to drop out to raise your little child Doesn't seem to be anyone around You got to reach up to touch rock bottom The powers that be keep you downtrodden Daughter of Zion, I heard your prayer Just cast your cares and please beware of snakes They come in all shapes and sizes Tempt you, put scales on your eyelids Don't waste your sorrows They'll give you strength for tomorrow Your Calvary's about to come so Keep your head up, don't you ever let up This storm will pass you be ready for the next one Hey little girl with the pressures of the world on your Shoulders Don't say that it's over I heard your prayers, just cast your cares And I'll be there so don't you fear Hush little baby baby don't you cry Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby Everything's gonna be alright The Lord's gonna answer your prayer tonight Hush little baby don't you cry Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby Everything's gonna be alright The Lord's gonna answer your prayer Irene I carried you when you was too weak to walk I took to you when you gave your heart to God Faithful and true, that's what I'll always be to you Believe in you, believe in Me And these mountains have to move, You have dreams and aspirations I knew you before creation Your foundation's solid I will give you a palace, restore your soul You'll be up for any challenge Many storms are on the way better sharpen your faith Count the cost, take up your cross And wear it every day Rest in Me and I will give you strength Blessed is she, Irene who seeks my face Hush little baby baby don't you cry Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby Everything's gonna be alright The Lord's gonna answer your prayer tonight Hush little baby don't you cry Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby Everything's gonna be alright The Lord's gonna answer your prayer Father I'm stronger than when I first believed
I've been a fan since he was in DCTalk; I first heard him on the radio when I was in high school. This song and the whole album really helped me as I was going through my divorce, and I was feeling like quitting and feeling worthless, with a little boy to raise without his father around. It's been a long tough road, but I'm just now seeing the benefits of staying faithful to God and doing what's right. And this song really hit home for me. I don't know if Toby Mac will ever see this, but if he does, Thank You for songs like this!
And to differ them from those who love God because of his blessings and from those who blindly love him. But to those who suffer do not worry because your suffering is small relative to the suffering you will endure n hell if you turn your back on God and if you stay in God's path you will be blessed greatly in heaven.
Thank you for this song!!! God Bless you and yoour family! Great song for the young single moms out there!!! It gave me strength when I was going through rough times... Thank you!!!
i love TobyMac. have since i saw him at Unity Christian Music Festival in Muskegon, MI. read a few comments on here. just want to ppl that say stuff crap about religion. Christ & God is NOT suppose to be a religion. that's NEVER what God intended. He wants a relationship. All he wants is us to love Him & follow His simple directions. Revival is coming again Be ready to be a part."
Sitting here reading my BIBLE this song kept pushing at me. Somebody help me out, the movie with Outkast in it, the chase scene after the shoot-out, I swear this is the music, they just changed the lyrics! Anybody??? GOD BLESS!!!
I beat the teenage mom trend in my family. This song reminds me of the woman before me especially my mama who chose life. I listen to this song to feel strength 💪
i just started listening to tobymac. he is such an amazing singer. this song also touched my heart. it teaches me that the lord will be with you where ever you go. and that he will never leave you
Toby Mac is great! I love just about all of his songs. It's wonderful to see a man who loves Jesus and can rock out at the same time! It's also great to see a family man who puts them before himself. Thanks Toby for being a great example to men.
Listening now with a heartfelt memory. I continually played TobyMac on cassette tape in communist china. I served Christ there for 38 years and continue to do so but now from outside. Yes, while inside it was difficult but also easy. My children from the earliest age (cribs) grew up listening to TM and Irene. Now 67 years old and living in Hawaii, a retired Pastor/missionary I had planned to go to the show in Honolulu but that is the exact time my now 17-year-old son leaves from the airport to attend a construction camp at the Air Force Academy. Sadly we will miss the show. Seeing TM and the Diverse City band remains on my bucket list. Have a wonderful trip to Hawaii, Mahalo and Aloha.
You can argue this song aged finest out of all of his music. Bet not many realize this song is closer to 25 years old now, not 15. Yet the sound remains relevant through all these times
Toby Mac u never seem to amaze me 😘 you are sooooo Blessed. I love. You. And every song you make may God oh mighty King of Kings always continue to Bless you all my love your biggest fan 😍😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Well said. As someone who was once a person of (Christian) faith - now only a spiritual being - I just want to say that Christians would not be such a loathsome bunch were they to do things for the Love of God, and not for the Fear of Hell.
First concert I ever been to was a Toby Mac concert, and they played this song. And I had just picked up the guitar like the month before. This was in like early 2000’s I believe.
i've been listening to this song since i was young.... until now, this song reflects my whole being.... a daughter who was lost.... everytime pain structs me i listen to this.... as the song said "just cast your cares & i'll be there so don't you fear".... i'm a single mom too.... big impact....
Who's listening in 2024??
👋
😁
Me
Definitely me 💝.
I'll be listening to these hits till the day I die (tobymac pun intended)
This is actually pretty catchy.
Ikr
Christianity is what saved me and my twin brother from Abortion. and i thank God
Hallelujah! Assuming your parents are saved now and belong to Jesus Christ (John 1:12)?
33 year old man of god, sitting in the break room trying not to cry. Haven't heard this song in a long time, but man i needed to hear it
If you're reading this then have a nice day have fun and don't stress just thank god for another day and live ur life and do the things u want to do and don't worry about what people say cuz u only live once💕💕
I don’t know why but this has probably always been my favourite Toby Mac song.
Same here. It's very 2000's haha
Mine too! I love a lot of his other stuff, but this is my favorite
Same, I discover right now😂
Mine to but for me i had my first child at 14 i struggled to raise him his dad and i did not stay together because he was abusive i felt the world on my shoulders

Almost 15 yrs later and I finally find it!! It stayed on repeat on my headphones. Oh the memories and nostalgia with TobyMac!! Thank you so much for this
Listening in 2024 🎶
Me
I am so not listening to this song right now
I think that the lyrics go a little deeper that "Hush little baby don't you cry, Daddy's gunna sing you a lullaby." Hush little baby" refers to the fact that we are God's children and "don't you cry" means do not despair and " Daddy's gunna sing you a lullaby" means that God is with you and He will comfort you in your times of need. Awesome song!
wow, thanks for that
You are very welcome madam.
thanx I was looking for a translation of what it meant thanks
Thank you for the insight. I never thought of it that way.
That’s how I always saw it too.
Listening in 2024↓
Me😊
my parents had to listen this song even before theyve been married and now i listen this song 24/7
Me. My name is Irene and this is the first time I heard this. Love it!
Its weird I haven't listened to this song in 8 years but still know what he's going to say next
+Chris Koro i'm just having a tobymac night and listening to so many of his songs here on youtube and i'm really surprised at how many songs i still can sing along to! :D
Chris Kross SAME HERE! music is powerful. lol
Chris Kross that's always how it is isnt lol
Chris Kross same
Still true
This song is such a blast from the past! I’m so glad it came back into my life!
This song reminds me of someone that I know that had her first baby when she was 17 and made something of herself. She now has three children, works full-time and put herself through her Nursing school.

That is amazing :) God is good!
on
If you don't mind me asking does she. Go to a church called the orchard?
NLS S. Bah who cares? Remember that people have their reasons for staying single. I do not want to get a divorce and having to support my family through child support payments. Remember, we are all human beings too. Hahahahahahaha.
Sunset over Sunrise Are you sure this is an honestly good comment?
Wow I haven't listened to this song in many years. I wish I could tell Tobymac thank you for this hit. I was the little girl with the pressure of the world on her shoulders and ready to give up! But I'm still here!!! Hallelujah!!! ❤️🤗🙏🏾
I don’t know why but i just felt a strong urge to say God’s proud of you. 🫶
I finally sat down after a hectic day and when I acknowledged Him, God just said: “Hush little baby don’t you cry, Daddy’s gonna sing you a lullaby” and I busted out laughing! I haven’t heard this song in years but loved the Spanish guitar and the video and the theme.

Hence the split frame with the mom and baby and the dad in the bottom. Cleverly done. I missed that watching this as a pre-teen/teen.
It's 2023 and this song is still a banger!
Oh man take me back to my childhood
+Melonie Zappa Me too! I remember staying up until late on Saturday nights just to watch some Toby Mac, Skillet, John Reuben, etc. music videos. Such good times, haha.
+Richard Steele well I heard of skillet if been to a winter jam in the Tacoma dome and heard skillet sing. But why is the group called skillet?
I remember sitting in my room as a teenager, either drawing or working on homework and listening to Somebody's Watching for the first time on our Christian radio station♡
Oh my God same
Totally agree! I got this album for Christmas years ago! Still have the CD case
" Therefore tell the children of Yisra'el,
I am the LORD, and
I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Mitzrim, and
I will rid you out of their bondage, and
I will redeem you with an outstretched arm, and with great judgments:"
Exodus 6:6 HNV

I'm Going Through It Right Now But I Continue To Remind Myself Don't Say That It's Over Because There's Light at the End of the Tunnel 🙏🏾:) Amen.
Awesome song and God bless TobyMac and his band and being a light to so many. Christ is a free gift for us all and brings salvation, freedom, and transformation. “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Romans 10:13 “Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” John 8:36 “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” 2 Corinthians 5:17 God bless us all!!
One of the only artists I listened to as a kid. LOVE his music! ❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
Hush little baby baby don't you cry
Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything's gonna be alright
The Lord's gonna answer your prayer tonight
Hush little baby don't you cry
Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything's gonna be alright
The Lord's gonna answer your prayer
Last night you had a dream you was the homecoming queen
Today you're 18, happy birthday Irene
Quit school you had to drop out to raise your little child
Doesn't seem to be anyone around
You got to reach up to touch rock bottom
The powers that be keep you downtrodden
Daughter of Zion, I heard your prayer
Just cast your cares and please beware of snakes
They come in all shapes and sizes
Tempt you, put scales on your eyelids
Don't waste your sorrows
They'll give you strength for tomorrow
Your Calvary's about to come so
Keep your head up, don't you ever let up
This storm will pass you be ready for the next one
Hey little girl with the pressures of the world on your
Shoulders
Don't say that it's over
I heard your prayers, just cast your cares
And I'll be there so don't you fear
Hush little baby baby don't you cry
Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything's gonna be alright
The Lord's gonna answer your prayer tonight
Hush little baby don't you cry
Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything's gonna be alright
The Lord's gonna answer your prayer
Irene I carried you when you was too weak to walk
I took to you when you gave your heart to God
Faithful and true, that's what I'll always be to you
Believe in you, believe in Me
And these mountains have to move,
You have dreams and aspirations
I knew you before creation
Your foundation's solid
I will give you a palace, restore your soul
You'll be up for any challenge
Many storms are on the way better sharpen your faith
Count the cost, take up your cross
And wear it every day
Rest in Me and I will give you strength
Blessed is she, Irene who seeks my face
Hush little baby baby don't you cry
Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything's gonna be alright
The Lord's gonna answer your prayer tonight
Hush little baby don't you cry
Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything's gonna be alright
The Lord's gonna answer your prayer
Father I'm stronger than when I first believed
❤

This song predates me but that doesn’t stop it from being one of my favorite songs from my favorite artist.
this song always helps me to calm down and know Gods will for me
Toby Mac is great! I love just about all of his songs. It's wonderful to see a man who loves Jesus and can rock out at the same time! It's also great to see a family man who puts them before himself. Thanks Toby for being a great example to men.

"the Lord going to answer your prayer"
Listening now with a heartfelt memory. I continually played TobyMac on cassette tape in communist china. I served Christ there for 38 years and continue to do so but now from outside. Yes, while inside it was difficult but also easy. My children from the earliest age (cribs) grew up listening to TM and Irene. Now 67 years old and living in Hawaii, a retired Pastor/missionary I had planned to go to the show in Honolulu but that is the exact time my now 17-year-old son leaves from the airport to attend a construction camp at the Air Force Academy. Sadly we will miss the show. Seeing TM and the Diverse City band remains on my bucket list. Have a wonderful trip to Hawaii, Mahalo and Aloha.
One of my favorite songs on the WOW Cd from that year. Overplayed it a million times....
I first heard this in foster care, one of the first tracks I was introduced to and it gave me hope 👌🏼
Just heard about your son. So sorry for your loss. May he rest forever in the arms of Jesus.
You can argue this song aged finest out of all of his music. Bet not many realize this song is closer to 25 years old now, not 15. Yet the sound remains relevant through all these times
I just learned about this song, love the lyrics ❤
I listened that song at first time since I was a child :3

Well said. As someone who was once a person of (Christian) faith - now only a spiritual being - I just want to say that Christians would not be such a loathsome bunch were they to do things for the Love of God, and not for the Fear of Hell.
First concert I ever been to was a Toby Mac concert, and they played this song. And I had just picked up the guitar like the month before. This was in like early 2000’s I believe.
