When the year has been unkind
And the hearts of the people are broken
When the winter is long and wild
And life like the earth becomes frozen
In the darkest night, there's a light that shines
There's a hope that's burning in the shadows
Like a seam of gold in a shattered world
There is one who holds it all together
If you're plagued by anxiety
If you fear for the future's unspoken
If you've nurtured your dreams from seed
But the harvest has failed or been stolen
In the darkest night, He's the light that shines
He's the hope that's burning in the shadows
Like a seam of gold in a shattered world
He's the one who holds it all together
♪
(Holds it all together)
(Holds it all together)
(Jesus, He holds it all together)
See the light shining
Hope is arising
Every sorrow
Traded for joy
Creation is longing
His kingdom is coming
So hold on
Hold on
See the light shining
Hope is arising
Every sorrow
Traded for joy
Creation is longing
His kingdom is coming
So hold on
Hold on
♪
You're the risen Christ
You're the morning light
And the hope that lifts me from the shadows
Like a seam of gold
In my shattered world
You're the one who holds it all together
