When you look into heaven
To follow the flight of a bird
You can catch a glimpse
Of something that isn’t there
So, look with care
Tread quite softly
And do not stare
Shade your eyes
Close them shut
Get a grip on the prize
And keep holding on
Holding On…
Keep holding on…
Holding on to what’s right….
Holding on to truth and light…
Holding on to simple things…
Holding on to human beings…
Holding on to life and love…
Holding on to what’s above….
When you look into the ocean
Across great crashing waves
You will see but briefly
The thing does not exist
So, look with care
Tread quite softly
And do not stare
Shade your eyes
Close them shut
Get a grip on the prize
And keep holding on
Holding On…
Keep holding on…
Holding on to what’s right….
Holding on to truth and light…
Hold on to what’s above….
When you look into the ocean
Across great crashing waves
Keep holding on…
You will see but briefly
The thing does not exist
So, look with care
Tread quite softly
And do not stare
Shade your eyes
Close them shut
Get a grip on the prize
And keep holding on
Holding On…
Keep holding on…
Keep holding on…
Keep holding on…
Keep holding on…
