Hold Me. Love Me.

Hold me. Love me.

Keep me in Your sight.

Hold me. Love me.

Heal me from the fight.

Hold me. Love me.

Guide me with Your light.

In the ashes of the night I lay

Chaos, pain, my comfort

Loneliness is my friend

Yet I long for much more

Hold me. Love me.

Keep me in Your sight.

Hold me. Love me.

Heal me from the fight.

Hold me. Love me.

Guide me with Your light.

Outstretched my hand reaches

Grasping, yearning, hoping

Even a tiny light, a glimmer

This pulling me out of the dark

Hold me. Love me.

Keep me in Your sight.

Hold me. Love me.

Heal me from the fight.

Hold me. Love me.

Guide me with Your light.

Your compassion grabs my hand

Warmth flows freely through

Forgiveness, tears, renewed hope

Great is your plan for me

Hold me. Love me.

Keep me in Your sight.

Hold me. Love me.

Heal me from the fight.

Hold me. Love me.

Guide me with Your light.
