*****
My hands are tightly held on a rock
My gaze earnestly fixed on my only hope
I can’t let go you see for then I fall
Fall to a hole deep and scary
The hole of a life without Jesus
*****
What a world some live without hope or future
Scary even to imagine, how would I let go
See around all the whims of the evil one
An innocent soul to deceive, steal and kill
Hold me tight dear Lord lest I fall
*****
Stand me on this firm foundation
The ground soon lets go, there I sink
Lest on this rock I stand
Rock of ages hold me tight
All my ages let me not go but tightly held on you
*****
Waves of this life hardly hit me
Storms vigorously beat my skin
Snakes and scorpions are after me
If you let go I am doomed, I can’t let go
I will hold on you Jesus, my rock and my salvation
