Hold On
Tye Tribbett G.A. Lyrics

Every little thing is gonna be alright
Don't worry, everything is going to turn out just fine.

Weeping can only last one night
Crying and sadness will only last for a short time.

You gotta endure till the morning sun
You need to be strong and keep going until the morning sun arrives.

You're gonna win the race but you have to run
You will overcome this challenge, but you need to make an effort to succeed.

Trouble can never last always
Hardship and difficulty can never remain forever.

It looks like I can see a brighter day
Things are starting to improve and a better day is on the horizon.

My brother, if you could just hold on
Friend, if you can just stay strong and persist through your hardship.

The Lord's gonna make a way I know
I have faith that God will help us through this difficulty.

The God that we serve is Lord of all
The God we worship is in control of every aspect of life, no matter how big or small.

Of the big as well as the small
God is in control of everything, no matter the size or significance of that thing.

And yes, He's in love with everyone
God loves and cares for every single person, regardless of who they are.

No matter how many times we fall
Despite how many times we fail or make mistakes, God still loves and supports us.

Every detail that entails your life
God takes care of every small aspect of one's life.

He's already worked it out
God has already taken care of our problems and will provide a solution for us.

I know that life gets rough sometimes
I understand that life can be challenging and difficult at times.

But trust and never doubt
Believe in God and never question His love for you.

Yes, He sees that sometimes you cry
God knows and understands our pain and sadness.

In the room when you're by yourself
Even when we are alone, God is always with us.

And when your kids need money just to bust a grub
When your children need money just to buy food.

He sees nobody is there to help
God knows when we are struggling alone and without support.

Even though sometimes you feel like giving up
Despite feeling hopeless and defeated, don't give up.

And throwing in the towel
Don't give up entirely and quit.

He brought you out many times before
God has helped and supported us through difficulties in the past.

Why should it be any different now?
God will help us now, just as He has helped us in the past.

All of my needs He will supply
God will provide for all of my needs.

He knows the plans He has for my life
God has a plan for my life and is in control of my future.

He's El Shaddai He's more than enough
God is all-powerful and capable of providing for us beyond our needs.

He's in control (That's how I know)
God is in control of all things, which gives me the confidence to trust Him.

I know it seems like the Lord forgot
Although it may appear as though God has forgotten us,

About all that you're going through
Including all the hardships and difficulties that we are experiencing.

And the kids are growing up so fast
Children are growing and developing rapidly.

They think that they are grown
Young children may believe they are grown and independent.

The job is talking 'bout laying you off
Your employer is discussing the possibility of letting you go from your job.

You can't make it on your own
You can't get through this difficulty on your own.

Well, allow me to take the time right now
Let me take this time to tell you and reassure you that

To echo the words of Christ
To repeat and remind you of what Jesus said

Matthew 6 verse 25
A reference to a passage in the Bible in which Jesus tells his followers not to worry.

Take no thought for your life
Don't worry or be anxious about your life.

So you might as well look to the hills
You might as well look to God and His promises for help.

'Cause your help is on the way
Help and support is coming to you soon.

Rejoice in the Lord and be glad
Find joy and happiness in God.

This is the day that the Lord has made
Every day is a gift from God.

Somebody say, 'Hold on'
Let's encourage and remind each other to be strong and hold on through difficulties.

Hold on!
Stay strong, don't give up, and hold on!
