My Hands are Holding You

This song has been playing on Klove and the words are Strong... By Your Side by Tenth Avenue North

Why are you striving these days
Why are you trying to earn grace
Why are you crying
Let me lift up your face
Just don't turn away

Why are you looking for love
Why are you still searching as if I'm not enough
To where will you go child
Tell me where will you run
To where will you run

And I'll be by your side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don't fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you

Look at these hands and my side
They swallowed the grave on that night
When I drank the world's sin
So I could carry you in
And give you life
I want to give you life

Hi, I don't know you, but I was looking up this song on Google and it brought me to your blog. Just wanted to say that this song blessed me on a rough day.

Oh, and I love that version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow, too. It's by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, no joke.

Thanks again - and blessings.

I guess this blog is no longer used, but I just listened to that song, was looking it up online and I love it too.
