Hold On

Hold on I’m walking through hell for you Hold on Please tell me just what to do I’m walking in and over fire You’re walking somewhere in the light Where I want to… Hold on Don’t walk through this hell for me Hold on for the moment we both can be free Our future has not yet begun There’s fog up ahead and no future to see But it doesn’t mean we should run I promise this hell won’t go on for forever, and one day I’ll get to come home… Neither of us forever alone No you won’t be forever alone Hold on These trials God puts me through Hold on It’s so I’ll be worth more to you Sure we’re searching for each other And in all the right places too But have you ever wondered Why it’s not led me to you? Hold on I’m doing this all for you Hold on just a little while, and I soon will be All that you dream I will be I’m trying so hard, but maybe not hard enough? And maybe that’s why we’re not free Hold on, please, I’m sorry for all I’ve done wrong But how could you want me this way? Please don’t walk through hell for me No, never go through hell for me And someday we won’t have to say, "Hold on".

This emotional, thought-provoking write asks us to re-examine the term "free" and all the life changes that lead to it or keep us from achieving it! Janice

A lot of emotion. A refrain that stops us in our tracks, getting attention. I like “Don’t walk through this hell for me”
