A Hand To Hold
When fears and sorrows
Cause me to weaken,
Sometimes falling…
He picks me up, carrying me
On toward the promised land
When I’m so tired and faint
I can’t seem to find the strength
Or the courage I need
To move on toward the victory
He lifts my thoughts, my soul
So that I know I can make it home
When doubts and confusion
Drown out the voice of inspiration
Leaving me with a feeling of grief
In the darkness of exasperation
He pours out His tender hope
To help me find a way to cope
When darkness falls all around
And there is no peace to be found
I struggle with my despair
The paralyzing dread that reminds me
I am stuck in this place so black
It is then… that He whispers to my heart
Wait for me, my child and sing
Praises to the Son who will guide you
To a place of solace, a second chance
The grace that penetrates every shadow
When I feel so sad and alone
Like I can’t find my way home
And the path of love is gone
He silences the despair and gloom
With a love that abides in my soul
When I can’t find my way
And all I can do is pray
It is enough to say that I’ll be ok
If only He’ll be there for me
A light that pours out before me
Reflecting the wonder and grace
That comes from calling out to Him
The One who brings hope, faith and love
A joy that silences every threat
The grace that lifts up my spirit
So that I know He is always with me
