Holding On

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I can't carry your cross

But you can't carry mine

I know that it hurts

I know that it cuts

So deep inside

I know none of it's easy

You can take your time

You can't hurry grieving

It's hard to believe

But there's joy in the ride

So I'll keep on holding on

'Cause I know you're holding me

I'll keep on moving on

'Cause I know you'll carry me

So I'll walk through the fire

'Cause I know you're next to me

So I'll keep on holding on

Holding on

There's a reason for living

Stick around and you'll see

Yeah, it's a tough season

But loss still has meaning

There's fruit on that tree

So I'll keep on holding on

'Cause I know you're holding me

I'll keep on moving on

'Cause I know you'll carry me

So I'll walk through the fire

'Cause I know you're next to me

So I'll keep on holding on

Holding on

Mama said, mama said, mama said

There'd be days like these

(Days like these)

Father said, father said, father said

Take some time to breathe

When you walk through the fire and the flame

I know Jesus is the same

Yeah, it's gonna be alright

So I'll keep on holding on

'Cause I know you're holding me

I'll keep on moving on

'Cause I know you'll carry me

So I'll walk through the fire

'Cause I know you're next to me

I'll keep on holding on, yeah

Holding on
