I'm so stubborn
That's how I got here
So alone
Feels like forever
I wanna swim away
And breathe the open air
But I feel so afraid
Then I hear you say
Hang on
When the water is rising
Hang on
When the waves are crashing
Hang on
Just don't ever let go
I'm so hungry
How can I stay here?
Starving
For what I hold so dear
Like a hurricane
It takes everything
From me
Wake me from this dream
Hang on
When you're barely breathing
Hang on
While your heart's still beating
Hang on
Just don't ever let go
Three days
Or thirty years
So hopeless
This doesn't matter
Don't say it's too late
If you blink your eyes
The sun is rising
The sun is rising
Behind the Song:'Inspired by a survivor of Hurricane Katrina, originally written for a documentary film called the 'Nashville 9.' This song has become my own personal anthem for life. To never give up hope.God will never leave or forsake me. He will not give me more than I can bear. He will always be the added strength I need to get through any adversity I may face. Isaiah 41:10 states very clearly: 'Fear not for I am with you. Be not dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes I will help you. I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.'' - Plumb
