I try to hold on to this world With everything I have But I feel the weight of what it brings, And the hurt that tries to grab The many trials that seem to never end, His word declares this truth, That we will enter in this rest With wonders anew But I hold on to this hope and the promise that He brings That there will be a place with no more suffering There will be a day with no more tears, No more pain, and no more fears There will be a day when the burdens of this place Will be no more, we'll see Jesus face to face But until that day, We'll hold on to you always I know the journey seems so long You feel you're walking on your own But there has never been a step Where you've walked out all alone Troubled soul don't lose your heart Cause joy and peace he brings And the beauty that's in store Outweighs the hurt of life's sting But I hold on to this hope and the promise that He brings That there will be a place with no more suffering I can't wait until that day Where the very one I've lived for always Will wipe away the sorrow that I've faced To touch the scars that rescued me From a life of shame and misery Oh, this is why, this is why I sing... There will be a day with no more tears, No more pain, and no more fears There will be a day when the burdens of this place Will be no more, we'll see Jesus face to face There will be a day with no more tears, No more pain, and no more fears There will be a day when the burdens of this place Will be no more, we'll see Jesus face to face There will be a day He will wipe away the tears There will be a day
