Lyrics of The Hand That Keeps Holding Me – Tasha Cobbs Leonard
I feel Your love
Here in the valley
Don’t know what’s been happening
But I’ve seen You move
No, this isn’t new
Oh, it’s been rough
The storm has been raging
And my faith is shaken
I still hear You whisper
“I’m here with you”
My shepherd, lead me
I’ll go, I’ll follow
Don’t leave me alone
You promised You’ll never let me go
So I’ll just keep holding
The hand that keeps holding me
I looked away
But You stared right at me
No, You’re not mad at me
This is a love
I don’t understand
I tried to run
Was caught by Your mercy
No, You wouldn’t hurt me
Your grace it will reach
Wherever I am
You keep on holding me
Never let me go
Your hand is stronger than my past
Your heart is bigger than my sin
Your eyes are on my every move
Your plan is better I’ll follow You
