Still Has A Hold

Many times when I was little I'd hold my Daddy's hand

Many times I thought I was so strong

I'd let go and try to stand

Many times I fell and was so ashamed, never good enough

But someone failed to tell me

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

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

If I'm ever gonna change God, I need Your help
