People said I'd never make it they said I'd never see it through but they don't know what keeps me going I guess they never have met you my life was in shambles until the day you came along you turned my tears into laughter Lord you gave me a brand new song CHORUS I'm still holding on Lord I'll never let you go You gave me a smile You touched my heart you touched my soul and the bridges that's behind me Lord I burn them to the ground I'm still holding on to the best thing I ever found Voted likely not to prosper was left hanging 'ore my head you'll never count for nothing that's what most people said I've been known to be unsettled I never stayed around too long but Lord you're the treasure I've been searching for and Lord I'm still holding on
