Held Lyrics

Two months is too little, they let him go They had no sudden healing To think that providence Would take a child from his mother While she prays, is appalling
Who told us we’d be rescued What has changed and Why should we be saved from nightmares We’re asking why this happens to us
Who have died to live, it’s unfair This is what it means to be held How it feels when the sacred is torn from your life And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know That the promise was that when everything fell We’d be held
This hand is bitterness We want to taste it and Let the hatred numb our sorrows The wise hand opens slowly To lilies of the valley and tomorrow
This is what it means to be held How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know That the promise was that when everything fell We’d be held
If hope if born of suffering If this is only the beginning Can we not wait for one hour Watching for our Savior
This is what it means to be held How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know That the promise was that when everything fell We’d be held
