Poet Of The Word - Hold Fast To The Savior Lyrics

The days are ripe with treachery, I thought you were my friend
We stood so close together, brothers till the end
But now the heat is rising, love is growing cold
It's hard to show compassion when the truth's no longer told

Hold fast to the Savior, don't let go of His hand
When the world is full of fury, He will help you stand
Though anger may surround you, there's no need to fear
He'll lead you through the darkness, and wipe away each tear

The boundaries have been shattered, law thrown to the side
The facts no longer matter the world's been filled with lies
But the end is drawing nearer, we can feel it in the air
When we'll rise above the chaos, leaving behind despair

Hold fast to the Savior, don't let go of His hand
When the world is full of fury, He will help you stand
Though anger may surround you, there's no need to fear
He'll lead you through the darkness, and wipe away each tear

I hear the bitter voices, their hearts so full of rage
But I won't be consumed by the anger that they stage
I know there's more to living than the fury of the crowd
I'll stand upon the promise that my faith has vowed

Hold fast to the Savior, don't let go of His hand
When the world is full of fury, He will help you stand
Though anger may surround you, there's no need to fear
He'll lead you through the darkness, and wipe away each tear

The insults they are throwing, like arrows in the night
But I won't lose my way, I'll keep walking in His light
They may try to break me, but I'm grounded in His love
He's watching over me from His throne above

Hold fast to the Savior, don't let go of His hand
When the world is full of fury, He will help you stand
Though anger may surround you, there's no need to fear
He'll lead you through the darkness, and wipe away each tear

So don't listen to their anger, you've got no cause for fear
He'll guide you through the valley and wipe away each tear
If you stay close to His mercy, let Him fuel your soul
You'll find the strength to carry on, and finally be made whole

Hold fast to the Savior, don't let go of His hand
When the world is full of fury, He will help you stand
Though anger may surround you, there's no need to fear
He'll lead you through the darkness, and wipe away each tear

In His arms, there's comfort, in His love, there's peace
He'll fuel your compassion, and your strength will never cease
When the storm is raging, just hold on and pray
For His grace will sustain you every single day

Hold fast to the Savior, don't let go of His hand
When the world is full of fury, He will help you stand
Though anger may surround you, there's no need to fear
He'll lead you through the darkness, and wipe away each tear

So hold fast to the Savior, don't ever drift away
In His arms, there's protection, forever you will stay
He'll lead you through the darkness, with a love so true
Hold fast to the Savior, He'll carry you through
Yes, He will carry you through
