Don't Let Go
(专辑: Stand (In The Light) - 2008)
I
remember when daddy used to tell us bedtime stories As we went to sleep, choosing words that last forever, ooh And when I'm feeling lost, thinking that I
cannot find my way Those words still come to me while I'm kneeling down to pray I
can hear daddy say, 'Keep the
faith and hold on And don't let go of the
promises in what he said Troubles don't last always" Don't let go to the
mystery of his word 'Cause joy's gonna come in the
morning Don't let go, don't let go, ooh I
remember times I
try to do it all my way It always seemed to end with me falling on my face, ooh The
long and winding road sometimes turn into a
pile of sand Those words still come to me while I'm kneeling down Kneeling down to pray I
can feel my daddy say, "Keep the
faith and hold on Don't let go of the
promises in what he said Troubles don't last always", ooh Don't let go to the
mystery of his word 'Cause joy's gonna come in the
morning Daddy said, "All the
angels are singing in heaven And I
know they can be heard everywhere Through the
trials and tribulations we go through We can hear them singing everywhere", yeah, everywhere Singing don't let go of the
promises in what he said Troubles don't last always Don't let go to the
mystery of his word 'Cause joy's gonna come in the
morning Don't let go (Don't let go) Daddy said, "Always keep the
faith" (Don't let go) Faith is the
substance of things hoped for (Don't let go) Evidence of things not seen (Don't let go) Hold on to your dreams (Don't let go) He said, 'No one can tear you down' (Don't let go )
Once ya have the
knowledge, boy (Don't let go) Don't let nobody steal ya joy, ooh (Don't let go) Don't cha lean to ya own understanding (Don't let go) Letcha Father directcha path (Don't let go) Speak it, see it, dream it (Don't let go) Then you can believe it (Don't let go) And you can live (Don't let go) My daddy told me (Don't let go) Now that your body's the
temple Spirit the
most high, God lives within you, boy I
said, Thank you, father, ooh Daddy, I
won't let go, you put your love so deep inside of me And all of my brothers and sisters I'm so glad you were a
grand man (Don't let go)
