Verse 1:
Why do I go through all these trials, Lord?
Sometimes I wonder why they have to come.
What is it that You want to help me see?
Help me hold on 'til the battle's won.
[The battle's wo - on.]

Verse 2:
Help me face myself and take the blame,
See beyond this moment of disgrace,
To take success and failure both the same.
To run with patience 'til I win the race!

Bridge 1:
Although it's very hard,
From this broken heart
I will learn to hold on, knowing I
Will win the victory!

Chorus:
I know You love a broken heart,
And want to help me pass the test!
The one thing, Lord, that helps me carry on
Is knowing it will work out for the best!
Help me, Lord, to just hold on,
To have the faith and win the crown!
I need Your Word to help me carry on,
Knowing that You'll never let me down!

Verse 3:
And though today I may not understand,
I have Your Word that tells me not to fear
[Not to fear, not to fear!]
And if sometimes You hide the road ahead,
Give me faith to know the victory's near!

Bridge 2:
Although it's very hard,
From this broken heart
I will have more compassion for other hearts
That are broken!

Chorus 2:
I know You love a broken heart,
And want to help me pass the test!
The one thing, Lord, that helps me carry on
Is knowing it will work out for the best!
[Help me, Lord, to just hold on!]
Help me, Lord, to just hold on,
[You've never failed me yet!]
To have the faith and win the crown!
[I've got Your Word!]
I have Your Word to help me carry on,
Knowing that You'll never let me down!
[I know You'll never let me down!]
