Take My Hand
The Kry Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hebrews 11

I know there are times
your dreams turn to dust
you wonder as you cry
why it has to hurt so much
give Me all your sadness
someday you will know the reason why
with a child-like heart
simply put your hope in Me

Chorus:
take My hand and walk where I lead
keep your eyes on Me alone
don't you say why were the old days better
just because you're scared of the unknown
take My hand and walk

don't live in the past
cause yesterday's gone
wishing memories would last
you're afraid to carry on
you don't know what's comin'
but you know the one who holds tomorrow
I will be your guide
take you through the night
if you keep your eyes on Me

take My hand and walk where I lead
keep your eyes on Me alone
don't you say why were the old days better
just because you're scared of the unknown
take My hand and walk where I lead
you will never be alone
faith is to be sure of what we hope for
and the evidence of things unseen
take My hand and walk

just like a child holding daddy's hand
don't let go of mine
you know you can't stand
on your own

Repeat chorus:
take My hand and walk where I lead
keep your eyes on Me alone
don't you say why were the old days better




just because you're scared of the unknown
take My hand and walk
