"JESSE'S SONG"

Verse 1
You hear me speak in my silence,
My heart cry rings out so clear.
I'm faced with so many choices,
Torn by so many fears.
As if I'm groping in darkness,
I don't know which road to take.
Oh God, can someone please help me?
Or I might just fade away.
I've got to keep .

Chorus 1
Holding on,
Though I feel like letting go.
Live each day
As if tomorrow may
Never come,
For the sun may soon be setting,
On this life that I am living.

Verse 2
In my mind I'm filled with questions,
Of things I don't understand.
Lord, You assure me with answers,
That it's all a part of Your plan.
And though it seems I can't make it,
I know that I'm not alone.
My voice is lifted in praises,
For You are still on the throne.
Please keep me..

[Repeat Chorus 1]

Bridge
Life and death are as the moving tide,
Swept ashore in His perfect time.
We're as sailors, out at sea,
Saving the drowning and dying,
But we're running out of time.
We've got to keep ...

Chorus 2
Holding on,
Though we feel like letting go.
Live each day
As if tomorrow may
Never come.
For the sun will soon be setting
On this world in which we are living.

Oh, help us keep..

[Repeat Chorus 2]

Oh, help us keep holding on!
