They said I'd never make it, they said I would not last a day.
They said when things got heated up I would get blown away.
But I'm still here Lord,
Still strong.
Chorus 1
And I'm still holdin' on
Every Day
Holdin' on, every way
Holdin' on, every minute
Holdin' on, I'm still in it.
I've got strength to stand,
I'm holdin' on to God's unchanging hand.
They said I was too fragile, that living life was just dream
(livin' life was just a dream)
They said I didn't have the stuff to try swim up stream.
But I'm still here Lord,
Still strong
Chorus 2
And I'm still holdin' on
through the fire,
Holdin' on, I, I'm going higher
Holdin' on, through the flood
Holdin' on, through the blood
I've got strength to stand,
Holdin' on to God's unchanging hand.
Through the darkness
and through the night
I walk by faith, and not by sight
Cause I'm hangin' on to God's word
holdin' out for what I've heard
I'm thinking through the mind of Christ
Walking in the way that's right.
(spoken)
His promises are true
his love is everlasting
His power is available only for the asking
When you sow the word
Faith is what you get
You'll be rough, tough and hard to bluff. If you keep . . .
