Just Hold On

I wrote this song a while ago and Yakyn was helping me put music to it, but it was never finished. Maybe someday I can get around to finishing it. Anyway, I thought I would share the lyrics with you.

Just Hold On

You’ve lived a life of shame and dread

Only to find you’re bruised and broken

Your past just keeps replaying in your head

Your loved ones warned you not to go

Walking the path, the path that you chose

Now you can’t see a hope through all your tears

Chorus:

When your soul is aching

And your heart is breaking

And your world is quaking

Just hold on

When your feet are stumbling

And you’ve started wondering

If the hands that held you

Are going to stay strong

Just hold on

Your world of dreams is crashing down

Finding yourself was all that mattered

Your future seemed brighter all around

Your loved ones begged you not to go

Treading the path, the path that you chose

It’s the one you’ve journeyed all these years

Chorus:

When your soul is aching

And your heart is breaking

And your world is quaking

Just hold on

When your feet are stumbling

And you’ve started wondering

If the hands that held you

Are going stay strong

Just hold on

So when your heart is straining

And your breath is fleeting

You cry out…

I’ve surrendered in my shame

There is no one left to blame

I try to run and hide my pain

Yet every time I turn around

It is always there again

Chorus:

When your soul is aching

And your heart is breaking

And your world is quaking

Just hold on

When your feet are stumbling

And you’ve started wondering

If the hands that held you

Are going to stay strong

Just hold on

In God’s loving arms you have found

You never knew your heart could change

Nor all of your sins that He forgave

Your loved ones welcomed you back home

Abandoning the path, the path that you chose

It’s the one you’ve traveled full of tears

Now that He has opened your eyes

You see…

That He has healed your aching soul

And He has made your broken heart whole

And He has stilled your world

He has stilled your world

Just Hold on

Cause He is holding on to you

He is holding on to you

Just hold on
