Lyrics
Oh my
I didn't know what it means to believe
Oh my
I didn't know what it means to believe
But if I hold on tight, is it true?
Would You take care of all that I do?
Oh Lord
I'm getting ready to believe
Oh my
I didn't know how hard it would be
Oh my
I didn't know how hard it would be
But if I hold on tight, is it true?
Would You take care of all that I do?
Oh Lord
I'm getting ready to believe
Then we'll be waving hands, singing freely
Singing standing tall, it's now coming easy
Oh, no more looking down, honey, can't you see?
Oh Lord, I'm getting ready to believe
Then we'll be waving hands singing freely
Singing standing tall it's now coming easy
Oh no more looking down, honey, can't you see?
Oh Lord, I'm getting ready
Oh Lord, I'm getting ready
Oh Lord, I'm getting ready to believe
#Kiwanuka
This guy went to my school and he's all the music teachers talk about.
He's a legend already, and he's still just begun.
Your teachers have great taste, and so do you.
Bet that's awesome feeling and makes you feel good seeing his doing well
In all my life, I have never listened to an entire album at a stretch without skipping a few tracks till I heard him. The essence of his music just wraps around a wiry soul and heals like magic. I am an instant fan who loves all your songs. Thank you for staying true to YOUR sound
Ayeni Precious very true my dear very true xxc
procurei tanto esta cancao que linda voz nao me canso de ouvila deus te abencoe mikael kiwanuka beijos daqui do brasil abril de 2017
Sorry, us black boys dont want black girls no more but thanks
So true!!!!!
Ayeni Precious I can say “I literally love this man” unbelievable talent that I was fortunate enough to see last year.. Life changer ☮️💟💯🎬
Last year times were really tough, and I had to get a second job for a while. I listened to this song every morning on my way to work and it was the only peace that kept me sane in the hellish reality of 5am wake up calls and working 11-12 hours a day. It gave me hope. I'm so grateful for that.
I hope you're doing well now ❤️
I agree, this song will help me get through this hard time. Remember: take care and don't burn yourself out.
U are loved unconditionally :) God bless u dear

Deep. Intense. Uplifting. Rejuvenating. Hopeful. I am running out of adjectives to describe his music. Not since the Grateful Dead have I come across lyrics so powerful.
For some reason this song makes me think of my mother. I can’t explain it but it always makes me feel like she is near…. Thank you Michael
How and why isn't michael better recognised? Massive talent everyone should know about :)
It took some years but I feel like now he has gotten a bigger platform
I haven't found one song of his that I don't like.
Agree with that. A favorite artist of mine.
Me neither.
It’s just impossible.
I have depression and have struggled with it all my life. This song really hits different for me,, it’s beautiful. It’s a story about finding out the sad nature of your life.. and trying to fix it. Trying to rekindle the shushed flames of a candle. It’s a story of hope. It’s a store of acknowledgement. It’s a story of redemption… it’s a story of beauty. I love this song. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Thank you, Michael.
Mr. Kiwanuka, please keep making great music, the world needs it!
LOVE!! LOVE!!! He actually made me comment on UA-cam for the first time. He's just that good.
Same here! (for One More Night)
Why y'all making us who are out here commenting on cat videos feel bad😂
Wow ! Super amazing and talented artist. I love his songs . I had never heard of him. I'm hooked . Phenominal voice.
The first time I heard this was when I played it on student radio from one of our playlists, with no prior knowledge of Michael's work. As soon as it finished, I said nothing for a few moments in stunned enjoyment, before saying something along the lines of "That was so good, it deserves a second listen" and playing it a second time. In all of my radio presenting since, I've not done the same thing as I did then of playing a song twice, such was its quality.
Tears of joy run down my face when I listen to this song.
Such a beutiful song. I feel that this will be a classic that will stand the test of time...I'm sure of it!
CBC Radio 2 brought me here. They play the best music and they have made - with the help of artist like Michael Kiwanuka, listening to the radio fun again.
Gosh brought me to tears! Just got the album which is just $5 at Amazon this month and this song made me think of my Mom and how much she would've loved it.
I was watching a British program, Battling Emergencies on the Front Lines and this was the ending song for Season 1-EP 101.
I had to find this song. Turns out I had looked for it, and already saved it before.
I’m getting the album. He’s so good! I love this song. Rarely does a song hit me like this the very first time I hear it.
I feel so lucky to have found your music when I was younger, because it has gotten me through some of the worst parts of my 20's.
Hoping for a more stable, and optimistic 30's, and gonna try harder for it too. Ready to move on and grow. Ready to be there for my loved ones for a change. I'll still be playing your music when I'm up, or when I'm down. It always reminds me that it's gonna be okay. Thank you Mr. Kiwanuka.
I think listening to your music on my worst nights may have have saved me from some much worse fates than what I was dealt. Because you allowed me to breathe and remember again. Thank you Michael, and Thank you BBC One from the early 2010's. Between this and Alabama Shakes, it's like they knew what I needed to hear, and it was such a nice change. Still is.
Der Song HOME AGAIN ist bestimmt auch gut für dich. Bin sicher, dass du es liebst.
God Bless you
I'm not quite sure how I got here but I'm enthralled. What a surprise !!! The most beautiful 3 minutes I've spent today. Haunting voice, rapturous melody, and orgasmic rhythm. Super.
First time I heard this song, I was half way around the world on my own with just $500 under my name. I kept persistent, I completed my graduate school, got married, had a baby girl. I was ready then, I am ready now.
Thank you Michael! I hope I see you perform once everything opens back up.
God bless you and your family 🙏🤲🎶🎵🥰😍♥️💕🤩
Seriously can't stop listening to this song.
Michael Kiwanuka brought me here! I'd heard his music before but seeing him at Latitude festival made it real
His songs don't need to be wrapped in super video's with special effects. I like the seats with the exotic fabric on it. ;-) Love to see MK in Brussels 30 april at AB
this young mans music sings right to my core
in few years he'll belong amongst the best musicans, beside bill withers, marvin gaye, amy winehouse .. he brings something authentic what music really miss for last 30-40 years ..
Ce son transporte et vous emporte avec une telle facilité qu'il ne peut qu'être un pur son magique comme personne n'en fait!!!
Use to have this song 6 yrs ago when it came out. How even more beautiful this song is nowadays. Glad this popped up randomly just now in recommended.
This speaks to my very soul.
My local truely independent radio station brought me here. Thanks 88.9 radio milwaukee. Quality stuff.
This artist is a global treasure
so true 🙂
His voice is my happy place....
An amazing song. An amazing voice. I'm hearing Sam Cooke and Nick Drake. I'll definitely be following this man's work.
Beautiful and deep song.What an amazing voice he has.
This is indescribably beautiful.
The Get Down has introduced me to so many great artists, but Michael is definitely my favorite from the bunch
The WallflowerNerdGirl what exactly is The Get Down? I'm interested
Cole Weatherby it's a Netflix original about the black and Latino communities in the 70s in New York and disco vs hip hop kind of stuff. It's super unique and somewhat hard to explain but I personally thought it was really good!
Great voice, Bill Withers of our generation! Saw him perform live last September, before he was signed! Great talent! : )
Yet another great song of Michael. He's a great artist
Ahhhh finally a little gleam of hope that the music industry is going to focus on honest and true musicians again.. This is really beautiful!
Your voice is as peaceful as your worship to our Lord. So Blessed to be here😇😇😇
Wonderful music, touch my soul and my heart.
he has a real hendrixy tone to his voice i like that vibe about him, this guy is going places
This music is heaven.
this song is phenomenal
I think it takes some time that the world realise how great this music is.
This is more than just a song baby....This is a brave and inspirational declaration....My scalp is tingling !!!!!!!!!!
This album takes you worry walks beside me to I'm getting ready to believe the emotional range insane.
Heard this on youtube but another simple version when he was outside with the guitar in his hands and wind in his face. It was beautiful and I was just so attached. He is a pure soul talent and today we don't have too many of them. Thank you for your wonderful music! You inspire me...
Just saw you live at Mumford & Sons last night! Awesome!! When true artists play live, it's a magical thing :)
Who cares who brought you here? The point is this artist. He really is going beyond every boundary that currently exists nowdays.. This music is something I feel like our generation can actually be proud of. Sincerity at it's finest.
I really don't know why, but this song has got the most peculiar , pleasant atmosphere
its such a pleasure to come across Ugandan musicians, not too many of them = )
irgendwann durch einen zufall diesen song gefunden!!!! super music !!!!!!!!
Most people who become Christians first go through desperate times to the point where they get tired of even living. In the video, the woman is greatly going through a hardship in which through this hardship she is "getting ready" to believe in God in order to overcome this obstacle in her life.
With this album I falling in love with his voice and music. ❤️🔥
Hey! Real music, real tunes. Wonderful!
How can you not like this music
The struggle of a soul as it wrestles against the pull of the Holy Spirit
Played in GAP constantly!!! Still a song you can't get bored of!!
Why is this so short. I'd like it to listen this for hours.
His performance at North Sea Jazz festival (in The Netherlands) brought me here.
he just made visiting one of his concerts a high priority for me :)
That God Bless this Soul, I think he is discreet and shi, does not want to loose his Soul in the ways and troubles of this illusory world, like Sixto Rodriguez Cause/ Sugar Man; Man of Spirit, that is it what the world needs as examples to follow or be Inspired for. Bless
The last scenes of "The Flatshare" brought me here......Mesmerizing track!
Esta música é simplesmente perfeita!
Oh my goodness, I am totally in love with this young man. He is a star and I wish him all the best in his endeavors.
I heard this for the first time last night driving, listening to Coffee House on Sirius. Brought me to tears and I had to pull over. Magnificent...just what I needed at this time in my life! Thank you!
Just found this song and I'm in love with it
Love the guitar on this one. Little bit of a Nick Drake vibe... and that's a really good thing.
Yes! It sounds like something off _Bryter Layter._
amazing artist, so dam soulful, this song has great soul with a twist of country. dam i hope this artist keeps it up. originality makes history
Just love this song. Remember first time hearing on my ddrive to mountain house. I had satellite radio because other alternative was country music or religious. hearing this made me smile and have tear in eye at same time. It is all about hope. I wish this talented artist the best of luck and will buy his records.
hermosa oración de todo momento! it is like a prayer...makes me feel happy :) se siente uno contento Thanks Michael! Hay Fe en la gente positiva y buena, there is HOPE to stand for what is right, peace, respect, be strong!!!
That guitar line is very much like one of Nick Drake's. His voice is great and the song is great. Wonderful!
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL AND WONDERFUL SONG! Michael and to your staff who run this channel for you... THANK YOU for sharing this! I just came across this song randomly today, not even looking for it... GREAT SOUND! Man I would love to play my Native American flutes with him to one of his songs!
How old is his SOUL?

Straight from 1972 Bill Withers and Marvin Gaye Vibe.
I just heard it play on Wimbledon 2024 signalling the Ladies Semi Finals of 4 women from different countries. Such a lovely and soulful song...glad to have found it.
What a lovely voice and amazing guitarist he is 😮
I can't find a propper word to express what I feel when I listen to his song a kind of mixt betwween hapiness melancoly and sadness it's realy strange but in the end it feels good he's an artist
words can't express how much i love this song!
I simply love this song
he is amazing! way better than most of the other singers today! :D
I could be completely wrong, but the way he walks past the chapel and in to the cafe instead, lead my to think that he's singing about faith and saviour in others, rather than just in a God.
una bella voce calda, un artista di una certa classe
My GOD, Michael is awesome!!
Knew this dude would make it ever since I seen him on the crypt sessions! fair play! he deserves every bit of it.
Wish this song was longer!
One of the only good things I have heard in 2012. What a voice.
Oh my
I didn't know what it means to believe
Oh my
I didn't know what it means to believe
But if I hold on tight, is it true?
Would You take care of all that I do?
Oh Lord
I'm getting ready to believe
Oh my
I didn't know how hard it would be
Oh my
I didn't know how hard it would be
But if I hold on tight, is it true?
Would You take care of all that I do?
Oh Lord
I'm getting ready to believe
Then we'll be waving hands, singing freely
Singing standing tall, it's now coming easy
Oh, no more looking down, honey, can't you see?
Oh Lord, I'm getting ready to believe
Then we'll be waving hands singing freely
Singing standing tall it's now coming easy
Oh no more looking down, honey, can't you see?
Oh Lord, I'm getting ready
Oh Lord, I'm getting ready
Oh Lord, I'm getting ready to believe
