Still Has A Hold

Many times when I was little

I'd hold my Daddy's hand

And many times I thought I was so strong

I'd let go and try to stand

But many times I fell and was so ashamed

Never good enough

But someone failed to tell me

That holding on doesn't do too much

Sometimes I'm on the mountain

Holding on to Your hand

Sometimes I'm in the middle

Holding the best I can

Sometimes I'm in the valley

And I let go long ago

When my hand is weak and tired

Your hand still has a hold

Many times when I was a child

They told me to follow the rules

Many times I tried oh so hard

To do what they wanted me to

But many times I failed and in my disgrace

I couldn't call Your name

But I found that though I left You

You were with me all the same

Sometimes I'm on the mountain

Holding on to Your hand

And sometimes I'm in the middle

Holding the best I can

Sometimes I'm in the valley

And I let go long ago

When my hand is weak and tired

Your hand still has a hold

I've tried to hold on to You

Seems the best that I can do is sometimes

Doing everything I can

But it's slipping through my hands sometimes

And if You're looking for consistency

Look to someone else

'Cause I'm holding hands with Heaven

While I'm making eyes at Hell

And if I'm ever gonna change

God, I need Your help

Sometimes I'm on the mountain

Holding on to Your hand

Sometimes I'm in the middle

Holding the best I can

Sometimes I'm in the valley

And I let go long ago

My hand is weak and tired

But Your hand still has a hold

When my hand is weak and tired

But Your hand still has a hold

Still has a hold
