Holding on

  1. Holding on -:-- / -:--

Holding on for unfailing love,
Crying out for a touch of peace,
Needing your grace to fall.

When the race is long and the prize seems hard to grasp,
You call me to run on.
I’m weary Lord, and have been losing heart;
O help me to be strong.
Holding on ….

My heart is parched and yearning for your voice;
I need your life within.
Come lift my eyes to meet your gaze again
That you’d become my strength.
Holding on….

Lord take me from this barren place,
I’m not sure I can hold on.
Everything of me seems stripped away,
but I know you’ll keep your promise.
Holding on….
