Hold On

Lately I’ve been thinking
This feels more like lost than found
The sand around me is sinking
Thought I stood on solid ground
And what I have put my hope in
Seems to have let me down
When all my dreams escape me
Without a sound

When everything is broken
And everything is gone
When there’s nothing left
To hold on, hold on to
You give me something better
More than just a feeling
You give me something real
To hold on, hold on to

I keep lifting empty buckets
Out from empty wells
Expecting something different
In the midst of this dry spell
But I know there’s more to put my hope in
It will never let me down
And I know there’s living water
To be found

When everything is broken
And everything is gone
When there’s nothing left
To hold on, hold on to
You give me something better
More than just a feeling
You give me something real
To hold on, hold on to
