Holding Fast
Oh Lord, I'm in this raging storm
Can You hear my cry for help?
Out of the depths I call to Thee,
I'm holding fast to the Wheel on the sea.

Please Dear Lord, hold me tight
The waves are rolling over me,
I'm holding fast to Your Strong Hand,
No other Name can I call but Thee.

I know this Pair of Hands can calm the sea
This Pair of Hands made the raging sea,
I'm holding fast whatever befall,
Please hear my cry, please hear me call.

Dear Lord, hear my faintest prayer
While I face this raging storm,
Come near me now, I know You care,
You promised You'd be always there.

"My Child, I'm standing next to you
You are safe in My Strong Hands,
I'll hold you close and dry your tears,
You are My Child, be of good cheer."

Lord, You are my Pilot in this storm
I'm holding fast as You guide my ship,
Your constant Love and faithful care,
Is all that saves me from despair.

God says, "I take great delight in you"
I am your Wheel, I hold you tight."
Whisper Jesus, the Sweetest Name to hear,
He will answer, He answers every prayer.

Can't you feel His Presence near you?
As you face your storm today,
He gives to you His calm assurance,
In His heart you will always stay.

Lord, Why did you rescue me?
Am I worthy of such Love?
O My Sweet Lord, I give my life to You,
All my love, I send to You up Above.
