They said |
|
I wouldn't make it, |
|
They said |
|
I wouldn't be here today. |
|
They said |
|
I'd never amount to anything. |
|
But I'm glad to say, that |
|
I'm on my way, |
|
And I'm growing more and more each day. |
|
For there were many that started out with me, |
|
But now, they've gone astray. |
|
But I'm still holding on. |
|
I'm still holding on. |
|
I'm still holding on to his hand. |
|
You see when |
|
I was young, |
|
I gave God my hand, |
|
And I told him to lead the way. |
|
Though the road has been rough |
|
And the goings been mighty tough, still |
|
I ain't going no where, |
|
I'm right here to stay. |
|
Though I've been talked about and |
|
Lord I've been criticized. |
|
I had to wipe many tears from my eyes. |
|
But I'm still holding on. |
|
I'm still holding on. |
|
I'm still holding on to his hand.and |
|
I'm still- holding on. |
|
Yes I'm still in |
|
God's holy plan. |
|
I'm still(chorus) holding on. |
|
And I'm bound for the promise land. |
|
I'll never(I will never let go of his hand) |
|
I'll never let go of his hand. |
|
I will never let go of his hand |
