Sometimes it's hard to keep believing In what you can't see That everything happens for a reason Even the worst life brings If you're reaching for an answer And you don't know what to pray Just open up the pages Let His word be your strength And hold on to the promises (Hold tight) Hold on to the promises (Alright) Jesus is alive so hold tight Hold on to the promises All things work for the good Of those who love God He holds back nothing that will heal you Not even His own Son His love is everlasting His faithfulness unending Oh, if God is for us who can be against us So if you feel weak Neither life, nor death Could separate us From the eternal love Of our God who saves us
