Will Reagan and United Pursuit's 'Nothing I Hold on to' is a live worship song about surrendering control and trusting God completely. The lyrics repeatedly affirm leaning not on human understanding but placing life in the hands of the Maker of heaven. The chorus expresses giving everything to God, trusting He will make something beautiful from the surrender. The bridge uses the image of climbing a mountain with open hands, symbolizing release and dependence. The song encourages letting go of personal plans and fears, resting in God's sovereignty and transformative power.

Bridge 1]
I lean not on my understanding
My life is in the hands of the Maker of heaven
I lean not on my understanding
My life is in the hands of the Maker of heaven
I lean not on my understanding
My life is in the hands of the Maker of heaven
I lean not on my understanding
My life is in the hands of the Maker of heaven

[Chorus]
I give it all to you God, trusting that you'll make something beautiful out of me
I give it all to you God, trusting that you'll make something beautiful out of me

[Bridge 1]
I lean not on my understanding
My life is in the hands of the Maker of heaven
I lean not on my understanding
My life is in the hands of the Maker of heaven

[Chorus]
I give it all to you God, trusting that you'll make something beautiful out of me
I give it all to you God, trusting that you'll make something beautiful out of me
I give it all to you God, trusting that you'll make something beautiful out of me
I give it all to you God, trusting that you'll make something beautiful out of me

[Bridge 2]
And I will climb this mountain with my hands wide open
I will climb this mountain with my hands wide open
I will climb this mountain with my hands wide open
I will climb this mountain with my hands wide open
I will climb this mountain with my hands wide open
I will climb this mountain with my hands wide open
I will climb this mountain with my hands wide open
I will climb this mountain with my hands wide open
There's nothing I hold onto
There's nothing I hold onto
There's nothing I hold onto
There's nothing I hold onto
There's nothing I hold onto
There's nothing I hold onto
There's nothing I hold onto
There's nothing I hold onto
There's nothing I hold onto
There's nothing I hold onto
There's nothing I hold onto
There's nothing I hold onto

[Bridge 1]
I lean not on my understanding
My life is in the hands of the Maker of heaven
I lean not on my understanding
My life is in the hands of the Maker of heaven

[Chorus]
I give it all to you God, trusting that you'll make something beautiful out of me
I give it all to you God, trusting that you'll make something beautiful out of me
I give it all to you God, trusting that you'll make something beautiful out of me
I give it all to you God, trusting that you'll make something beautiful out of me
