TobyMac – Hold On Lyrics

Hip Hop/Rap

Wake up to the morning light
Wipe away the lonely night
Let a brand new day wash over you

Wanna see you smile again
Show some love to your crazy friends
Wipe your tears away, those days are through

If you move just a little bit closer
You can put your head on my shoulder
Yeah, yeah

We gotta hold on
Just another day or two
I can see the clouds are moving faster now
And the sun is breaking through

If you can hold on
To the one that's holding you
There is nothing that can stop this crazy
Love from breaking through

We're breaking through
Whoa, whoa-oh-oh
We're breaking through
Whoa, whoa-oh-oh

Wake up to the rising sun
Thank the Lord for the things He's done
Lift your eyes to the hope that's ever true

Wanna see you smiling, girl
You're a light in this jaded world
Wipe away those tears, this one's for you

And come on, move a little bit closer
You can put your head on my shoulder
Yeah, yeah

We gotta hold on
Just another day or two
I can see the clouds are moving faster now
And the sun is breaking through

If you can hold on
To the one that's holding you
There is nothing that can stop this crazy
Love from breaking through

And the stars are up, they're shining for you
Oh, how the Father does adore you
His love (His love) will never change (oooh)

And you and I, we were born to follow
The hope that will lead us to tomorrow
And no one (no one) can take it away (ooh)

We gotta hold on (when you wake up in the morning light)
Just another day or two (wipe away all of your drowning night)
I can see the clouds are moving faster now (oooh)
And the sun is breaking through

If you can hold on (when you wake up in the morning light)
To the one that's holding you (wipe away all of those drowning night)
There is nothing that can stop this crazy
Crazy love from breaking (breaking)

We gotta hold on (when you wake up in the morning light)
(Wipe away all of those drowning night)
You see the clouds are moving faster now
And the sun is breaking through

If you can hold on (when you wake up in the morning light)
To the one that's holding you (wipe away all of those drowning night)
There is nothing that can stop this crazy
Crazy love from breaking through

Another day, another day (when you wake up in the morning light)
Just another day or two (wipe away all of those drowning night)
You see the clouds are moving faster now
The clouds are moving faster
(The one that's holdin', the one that's holdin')
(The one that's holdin' you)
I can see the clouds are moving faster now

    I was feeling really down because my husband and I are not getting along, he is a prison inmate, I'm a prison minister and minister to many inmates. I was feeling hopeless and sad, then this song came on. I write and visit inmates, so I have to stay up so this song was for me!

    TobyMac wrote this song for his wife and I think it is super romantic, in a very Christian way.

    Yo all you who think this song was nothing about God in it need to go back and read the part "Hold on to the One that's holding you". The "One" is obviously God and this is basically a quote from scripture about how Jesus holds his sheep and none can snatch them out of his hand... John 10 i think.Anyway Toby is awesome and so is this song.

    Makes me want to "hold on" in a difficult time in my life. We are ALL held by God. He's got the whole world in His hands. Yeah. What an amazing thought. Very upbeat song.

    It means Hold On ... better things to come or it will get better! My husband has told me all our life together "Hold On". We have been through circumstances as everyone else. When we heard this song it just cinched up what my husband has told me for years.This song is dedicated to us. Thank you Toby Mac and to my husband, Chris!
