There are nights when my prayer feels thin like breath,
When answers hide behind a thousand quiet questions.
The songs I used to sing sound distant in my chest,
And I’m learning how to live between the maybe and the certain.
I wander through a valley where the lamp seems dim,
And the road I trusted trembles underneath my feet.
Still I hear a whisper calling through the wind,
A name that steady hands have spoken over me.
Pre-Chorus
When doubt is louder than the truths I know,
When my hands are slipping, when my courage folds—
Chorus
I will hold on, even when the light fades,
I will stand firm though my hope feels small.
You are the anchor, You are my shades,
When the night is heavy, You are over all.
I will hold on, through the shifting sands,
You keep my heart from breaking, You make me whole.
Even when my faith feels faint in my hands,
I will hold on, I will hold on.
Verse 2
I’ve walked through seasons filled with unexpected grief,
Counted empty beds, and mornings that felt cold.
But I’ve seen Your faithfulness like rivers through the streets,
A thousand quiet mercies in the stories You have told.
When memory becomes the light that leads me home,
I remember roads You paved with unseen grace.
You carried burdens I would never bear alone,
And I find strength again in the echo of Your name.
Pre-Chorus
When questions crowd the windows of my soul,
When fear says run and I feel small—
Chorus
I will hold on, even when the light fades,
I will stand firm though my hope feels small.
You are the anchor, You are my shades,
When the night is heavy, You are over all.
I will hold on, through the shifting sands,
You keep my heart from breaking, You make me whole.
Even when my faith feels faint in my hands,
I will hold on, I will hold on.
Bridge (soft then rising)
Carry my doubt, Lord, carry my shame,
Take every trembling question, speak my name.
When the silence answers louder than the psalms,
Hold me, remind me You’re the God who never turns away.
I’m not letting go — not of the love I’ve known,
Though the winds may roar, You are still my home.
Tag / Final Chorus
I will hold on, even when the light fades,
I will stand firm though my hope feels small.
You are my anchor in the longest waves,
You are my shelter, my all in all.
Even when my faith feels faint in my hands,
I will hold on — yes, I will hold on.
Outro (soft)
When the light fades, You are with me —
When my faith feels small, I will hold on.
