Hold On

You've been suffering for long
As you wade through the storms of life's highway
More might appear ahead but never let them pull you under
You've just got to be strong
Troubles and trials come but not to stay
You see men lax behind you almost dream of sweet surrender
Hold on to the line!

You've just got to get there
So trudge along with determination
You where ordained for this right from the start of God's creation
You need someone to care
And urge you unto great expectation
The starry skies at night will see you through and so will the sun
On you they shall shine!

Don't wait up!
Don't give up!
You've been holding so fast for so long.
With a grip like an eagle's, hold strong
"Twill soon be the dawn of your morn
Never give up the fight....just hold on!
