The woman needed healing
of that dreaded disease
Her money brought physicians
But only Jesus could bring relief
And though her last thread of hope was worn down
to a strand
her heart held onto faith
til she could touch him with her hand
Cause when you're hanging by a thread
Still you can climb lifes mountain
Though the cliffs are rough and jagged
You can cope
If you should slip and reach ropes end
You'll find the hem of his garment
So don't let go of that last thread of hope
Is that you hanging onto a
frayed and fragile faith
Are you clinging to the rocks
above the canyon of dismay
Reach out for the life line
It will never break in two
Hold fast and don't lose heart
once again God will pull you through
Cause when you're hanging by a thread
Still you can climb lifes mountain
Though the cliffs are rough and jagged
You can cope
If you should slip and reach ropes end
You'll find the hem of his garment
So don't let go of that last thread of hope
If you should slip and reach ropes end
You'll find the hem of his garment
So don't let go of that last thread of hope
