Sing-Along-Saturday

Life throws us all kinds of unexpected situations. Issues come into our lives that we are not prepared to deal with or understand. But God is constant. He is unmoved and ever faithful. When the storms arise his steady hand keeps us safe on the turbulent seas. There are times when we are clinging so tightly to Him that our fingers grow weary from grasping his hand. But this song by Casting Crowns proposes a new way to stay close to the Lord... Just be Held! Instead of clinging, know that he is holding you and you can let go and allow his strong arms to hold you.

Imagine yourself curled up in his arms, just as you'd hold an infant. You are his baby and he's going to be with you every step of the way. Nothing will surprise him. Nothing will be more important than you. And NOTHING will cause him to let you go! So, just be held!

Hold it all together
Everybody needs you strong
But life hits you out of nowhere
And barely leaves you holding on

And when you're tired of fighting
Chained by your control
There's freedom in surrender
Lay it down and let it go

So when you're on your knees and answers seem so far away
You're not alone, stop holding on and just be held
Your worlds not falling apart, its falling into place
I'm on the throne, stop holding on and just be held
Just be held, just be held

If your eyes are on the storm
You'll wonder if I love you still
But if your eyes are on the cross
You'll know I always have and I always will

And not a tear is wasted
In time, you'll understand
I'm painting beauty with the ashes
Your life is in My hands

Lift your hands, lift your eyes
In the storm is where you'll find Me
And where you are, I'll hold your heart
I'll hold your heart
Come to Me, find your rest
In the arms of the God who wont let go
