[Verse 1]
Sickness came knocking hard
Hit me body and bone
Heart attack in the darkness
Thought I’d never get home
Pacemaker ticking my days
And the road got rough and long
But I’m still here in the morning
’Cause His mercy made me strong
[Pre-Chorus]
I lost more than I could say
Toe gone, one eye dim
But every time I start to fall
Jesus reaches in
[Chorus]
Still holding on
Still holding on
Jesus is holding me up
I’m still holding on
Still holding on
To His favor and His love
(Still holding on)
(Still holding on)
[Verse 2]
Defibulator went off twenty-two times
Like thunder in my chest
Diabetes in the bloodline
But He carried me through the test
When the nights got cold and empty
And my hands were bound in fear
I found a light in the valley
And I know my Savior’s near
[Pre-Chorus]
I lost more than I could say
Toe gone, one eye dim
But every time I start to fall
Jesus reaches in
[Chorus]
Still holding on
Still holding on
Jesus is holding me up
I’m still holding on
Still holding on
To His favor and His love
(Still holding on)
(Still holding on)
[Bridge]
If you’re praying for a brother
Let that prayer rise now
I may bend under the burden
But I won’t bow down
There’s power in the breaking
There’s grace in every scar
And I can’t explain the valley
But I know who holds my heart
[Final Chorus]
Still holding on
Still holding on
Jesus is holding me up
I’m still holding on
Still holding on
To His favor and His love
Still holding on
Still holding on
Pray for me, I’m not done
(Still holding on)
(Still holding on)
