of the famous "Ode to Joy". The German lyrics were written by Friedrich Schiller. This classical introduction is then followed by a chorale interlude arranged by Andrae and Sandra Crouch. The Andrae Crouch Singers are heard throughout the rest of the song as well. At the end, Jackson recites a poem. This outro was also featured in his book Dancing the Dream. Two more edits were created for the Free Willy soundtrack. The first that played in the film's closing credits is similar to the album version but without the prelude and interlude while the single version, also known as "Will You Be There" (Reprise), removes the prelude, interlude and spoken outro.

The song was picked as critic's choice in a Billboard review from Larry Flick who described it as a "highly inspirational, gospel/pop tune", stating that Jackson "offers one of his purest vocals in a long while, wisely sidestepping busy instrumentation and studio gimmicks. As a result, listeners are reminded how special and unique he truly is." Troy J. Augusto from Cashbox commented, "Not as immediate as much of Michael's material, but dreamy enough to connect with his
