Ponder, Sykes & Wright - Holding Things Close

Chorus / Description : Holding things close
Letting things go
What should we cling to
It's so hard to know
Hold to the love then the hope
Because everything else is all wrong
We keep holding things close
And letting things go

Holding Things Close Lyrics

She left like a wind 
Drove off in her car 
They stood in the driveway 
Under the star 
Somewhere they knew 
This must be more than goodbye

His debt brought me here 
They told me one day 
Would not have been long 
Had He not passed away 
How could I know that 
This was the start of my life 

Holding things close 
Letting things go 
What should we cling to 
It's so hard to know 
Hold to the love then the hope 
Because everything else is all wrong 
We keep holding things close 
And letting things go 

Run by the fakes and the hypocrites prank 
He ran from the church didn't look back for miles 
Then he me met the one that showed him 
That Jesus was real 

Holding things close 
Letting things go 
What should we cling to 
It's so hard to know 
Hold to the love then the hope 
Because everything else is all wrong 
We keep holding things close 
And letting things go 

Releasing the anger 
Releasing the fear 
Releasing the loved ones 
Who moved who moved on from here 
Holding to Jesus 
And his gentle face 
Holding the memories 
Holding the grace 

Holding things close 
Letting things go 
What should we cling to 
It's so hard to know 
Hold to the love then the hope 
Because everything else is all wrong 
We keep holding things close 
And letting things go 

We keep holding things close 
And letting things go 

"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose."
Jim Elliot
