[V1]
It’s not easy to watch as you struggle along
and not be able to answer your cry
Challenges facing you every day,
Sometimes it seems too hard to try
I’d like to smooth out the path that you travel on tomorrow
Or even carry the burden that you bear
I still call out you name to the Father each morning
and though it doesn’t seem fair

[Chorus]
You need to Hold on to the promises
that He gave to you, when you called on His name
and You know you should
Believe all things work together for the good

[V2]
I just learned today that I’ve been called away,
a duty that cannot be denied
Not long from now I’ll be walking along
Patrolling on a foreign country side
In my thoughts I’ll drift back to be here beside you
in this home of our own that we love
I will pray that the strength you seek for your sorrow
it comes from the Father above

[Chorus]
You need to Hold on to the promises
that He gave to you, when you called on His name
and You know you should
Believe all things work together for the good
