I’ll Hold Onto You
My thoughts are awakened and I breathe today,
My actions sometimes drift me far away.
From who I am to trust in for my joy in the every day?
Never looking at the clouds,
Focused on what’s all around
Trusting in my own self.
An endless search for acceptance from others,
Slowly realizing the power within myself,
a long lost gem is beginning to recover,
You are the One I need.
Hold me steadily, and love me ever so graciously,
Be patient with me,
As You’ve always been.
Here we are again,
I find myself entrapped in this familiar, yet uninviting cul-de sac.
The darkest wind of the night, it always lures me in,
The same old dead end road where we’ve already been.
From this day forward, onto You I will eternally cling,
I’ll hold onto You.
Living out my life,
In me, I know there is shade and over there isn’t that much light.
Indulging comfortably in the vanity of playing the victim
Climbing over my frozen in time mentality,
longing to securely bask in what’s bright.
The search for comfort and stability in the eyes that are all around
Failing to access the freedom of joy in my salvation.
Foolish old me,
Lord thank You for forgiving me.
Letting You start to truly heal the depth of those past experiences
I desire victory for myself and everyone who surrounds me
Am I living for you, or am I living for me?
Lord, I am so thankful you want to hear from me; I want to change,
I need to change.
Life is surely bright,
Full of color, full of delight,
Heal the part of me that just isn’t right.
Take me in Your arms,
Don’t let me pull away from You again,
For You have given me so much.
You saved me from my sin,
I will find my solid anchor in You.
From this day forward, onto You I will eternally cling,
I’ll hold onto You.
