Grateful until kingdom come For words you said to me You're now in a struggle I was in And your faith gave you away Amid their voices I still see your grace The city lights are closing in on me Well I just want you to believe You were right, things will get better for you and me Please won't you listen to me The choice is not just yours alone tonight We can ration your downfall Try to remember every single word you told me We will all recover Don't take it away I know It's hard to hold on when The pillars you stand on Are crumbling around you I know It's hard to be strong when The waves keep erasing What you worked so hard to build Hold on Just hold on Be strong for me And everything will be okay Just hold on Hang on to me
