Hold Me









"When I called, you answered me;
you increased my strength within me."





From my darkness you brought light;


From my hopelessness you brought faith;


From my loneliness you brought comfort;


From my angriness you brought peace;


From the brink of my despair, your hands held me up with a firm touch;


Your strength & reassurance that I am your child!





"When I called, you answered me;
you increased my strength within me."


Sometimes I lose sight of your teaching,


Sometimes I don't listen, stubborn and hard of heart


Sometimes I speak to no one and keep to myself


Sometimes I lose faith in your plans,


Sometimes I ask you questions when I know the answer is within me;


To do your Will


To Stand for Justice


To Sing for Freedom


To Preach for Salvation and Forgiveness


To affirm for the world that you are my mighty and living God!




"When I called, you answered me;
you increased my strength within me."



From my darkness you brought light;


From my hopelessness you brought faith;


From my loneliness you brought comfort;


From my angriness you brought peace;


From the brink of my despair, your hands held me up with a firm touch;


Your strength & reassurance that I am your child!




O my Lord I am your child. Hold me close to your strength.


Hold me close.


Hold me close, O' Lord



To do your Will


To Stand for Justice


To Sing for Freedom


To Preach for Salvation and Forgiveness


To affirm for the world that you are my mighty and living God!



O my Lord I am your child. Hold me close to your strength.


Hold me close...


Hold me.
