Lyrics to Holding On
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
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
