Lyrics
Still Holding Me
story behind the song
inspired by a sentence in the book Don't Waste Your Life by John Piper
When the clouds come and hide the sun,
When light ceases to be,
Even in the darkest hour,
He is still holding me.
When the storm comes, and it will,
When rain pours down on me,
His is the promise I'll lean on,
He is still holding me.
When I feel I cannot stand,
When I am just too weak,
I know for sure I'm in His hands,
He is still holding me.
When I'm sinking, sinking quick,
When I can barely breathe,
I just remember He's by my side,
He is still holding me.
When He finally calls me home,
When I, at last, am free,
Then I will finally see the One
Who is still holding me.
Lord, be my conscience, be my guide,
And give me strength to see
That, even in the darkest times,
You are still holding me.
Lord, be my conscience, be my guide,
And give me strength to see
That, even in the darkest times,
You are still holding me.
Through joys and fears
I still believe
You are the One
Still holding me.
