help is on the way
Assistance arrives soon
Help is on the way is a reassurance that assistance will arrive soon.
Someone stranded with a flat tire hears it from roadside service; someone in crisis hears it from emergency dispatchers.
The phrase implies patience—relief is coming, but not yet here.
Just hold on, help is on the way.
