I woke up and felt the weight again Same old fight beneath my skin Tried to pray but words were dry Tried to hope, but I don't know why The silence isn't empty though It holds a whisper I used to know

I know you're drowning I have been there But there's a rope tied to something real And even if your grip slips He's holding on He's holding on

You don't have to wear a fearless face He doesn't leave when fear takes hold Jesus wept in darkest hours He's with you now in nights like ours Even in pieces, you're still loved No wound too deep for His embrace

I know you're drowning I have been there But there's a rope tied to something real And even if your grip slips He's holding on He's holding on

You may not hear Him when the world gets loud Or when the fear becomes your only sound But through the fog of all your disappointment His quiet voice still says: I'm here. My child, I am here

I know you're drowning I have been there But there's a rope tied to something real And even if your grip slips He's holding on He's holding on

The Son of Nazareth He's holding on The Lamb who bore the cross He's holding on His scars still speak of grace He's holding on His vow still holds Jesus Hold on, Yes, the King will come Hold on, Yes, the King will come Hold on, Yes, the King will come Hold on, Yes, the King will come Hold on, Yes, the King will come Keep holding on.

I know you're drowning I have been there But there's a rope tied to something real And even if your grip slips He's holding on He's holding on

Job had riches, flocks, and land Every comfort made life grand Then came the day when all was gone But Job still praised with trembling song

The Lord gives and takes away But I will choose to sing and say Blessed be Your name, O Lord You are good forevermore

Heartache comes and storms arise But in my heart, this truth I know God is here through every pain His steadfast love will keep me safe

The Lord gives and takes away But I will choose to sing and say Blessed be Your name, O Lord You are good forevermore

When I don't see what You see Still I'll trust You faithfully Though I'm broken, Your love remains It's steady through the hurt and doubt

The Lord gives and takes away Still I will lift my voice and pray Blessed be Your name, O Lord I will trust forevermore

Joseph's brothers broke his heart Left him in grief and without a home But in his pain, God heard his cries And taught his heart to do what's right

I choose to forgive, just like Joseph did With a heart full of love, no anger hid God comforts me in my time of need I choose to love, I choose to forgive

You meant to harm me, Joseph said But God turned it for good instead I won't hold anger, I will love With open heart, I choose to forgive

I choose to forgive, just like Joseph did With a heart full of love, no anger hid God comforts me in my time of need I choose to love, I choose to forgive

When my heart hurts and I can not breathe I'll trust God's love to heal my pain The road ahead is paved with grace Just choose the cross, just choose God's love

I choose to forgive, just like Joseph did With a heart full of love, no anger hid God comforts me in my time of need I choose to love, I choose to forgive I choose to forgive, just like Joseph did With a heart full of love, no anger hid God comforts me in my time of need I choose to love, I choose to forgive Yes, I choose to love, I choose to forgive
