The Lion King’s “He Lives In You”

Out of all the songs in The Lion King, the one that made a major impact on me to this day is the song He Lives In You.  It is first sung by Mufasa to his young son Simba and later on in the second act Rafiki sings it to an older and wiser Simba.

The lyrics speaks so much truth about the love of God for His children and that He lives in us.

I just love how my four year old daughter Sofia kept singing the song before she even watched the show for the very first time at The Theatre at Solaire.  More so now that she saw it live,  the Original Cast Recording of The Lion King is on loop in our house.  Hakuna Matata!

HE LIVES IN YOU

Night
And the spirit of life
Calling
Mamela

And voice with the fear of a child

Answers oh Mamela

Wait
There’s no mountain too great
Hear these words and have faith
Have faith

He lives in you
He lives in me
He watches over
Everything we see

Into the water
Into the truth
In your reflection
He lives in you

He lives in you
He lives in me
He watches over
Everything we see

Into the water
Into the truth
In your reflection
He lives in you

Songwriters: M Lebo / Mark Mancina / Jay Rifkin
