Hang On!
Can you feel the anguish that rips each breeze
Or the hate that churns this sea of pleas?
It draws ever near, to feast on your fear.
It heralds a hunger that’s never full
And tears at you when there’s nothing to pull.
It will consume your soul if you dare let go.
​
Hang on! Hang on!
For there’s hope out there in its wicked lair.
Hang on! Hang on!
You can escape this snare with a simple prayer.
Hang on!
​
So you reel in pain, yet see nothing to gain
From setting aside your crippling pride
And giving control to the One who’s lone goal
Is to save your life from the choices you make
That cause your strife and threaten to break
The heart of your soul, if you dare let go.
​
Hang on! Hang on!
For there’s hope out there in this bitter fare.
Hang on! Hang on!
You can escape this snare with a simple prayer.
Hang on!
​
There’s a time to stand and a time to flee
And a time to simply fall to your knee
And hand your care to the One most rare!
He gives a love that will never fail
Or turn aside from your winding trail.
He will save your soul if you don’t let go!
​
Hang on! Hang on!
For there’s hope out there in that blinding glare.
Hang on! Hang on!
You can escape this snare with a simple prayer.
Hang on!
