Hold on

(Verse 1)
You’ve been running through the night,
Haunted by the ghosts inside,
Every dream feels like it’s burning,
Every prayer fades before the light.

You wear your pain like old tattoos,
Every scar remembers truth,
But I see more than what they’ve taken,
There’s still a fire inside of you.

(Pre-Chorus)
You say you’re tired, you can’t keep fighting,
But even storms can’t drown your soul.
You think you’re broken, I see a promise,
You’re still the man that heaven knows.

(Chorus)
Hold on, my heart, don’t let the darkness win,
I’m right beside you — through the mess you’re in.
There’s a home inside your heart,
There’s a God who never parts.
You’re not lost, you’re just learning to begin.
Hold on, my heart… hold on.

(Verse 2)
Voices whisper in your head,
Telling lies of fear and dread,
But love speaks softer — can you hear it?
It’s me, it’s Him, it’s all we said.

You don’t have to fight alone,
You’re not made of stone.
Even lions kneel when weary,
Even kings can lose their throne.

(Pre-Chorus)
When you doubt that you’re forgiven,
When your heart forgets the way,
Remember every tear you’ve given
Is a seed that blooms one day.

(Chorus)
Hold on, my heart, don’t let the darkness win,
I’m right beside you — through the mess you’re in.
There’s a home inside your heart,
There’s a God who never parts.
You’re not lost, you’re just learning to begin.
Hold on, my heart… hold on.

(Bridge)
You’ve got angels in your silence,
You’ve got hope beneath the pain.
Every wound you thought would kill you
Made you stronger in His name.

And the children’s eyes still see you,
Even heaven calls your name,
Don’t you know the light inside you
Was never yours to tame.

(Final Chorus)
Hold on, my heart, the night won’t last too long,
The pain will fade, you’ll rise again — reborn.
You’re the dream you thought you lost,
You’re the price love never cost.
Hold on, my heart… the morning’s almost gone.

(Outro – whispered / soft)
You’re not alone…
Never were…
Hold on.
