Mother in a waiting room,
Wondering if she'll hold him soon,
In the darkness searching for some light,
People say it'll be alright,
People tell you to hold on tight,
But what do you have to hold on to tonight?
(chorus)
Where will you find
peace when you cry?
In these hard times
it's not in what you hold onto,
it's in the one who's holding you tonight.
It's like staring down a wishing well,
The voice inside cries out for help,
But you've never felt so helpless in your life,
Time becomes the enemy,
You just got to wait and see,
While all the world is simply passing by.
(chorus)
And where will you find
peace when you cry?
In these hard times
it's not in what you hold onto,
it's in the one who's holding you tonight.
You are safe in the arms of the father,
You are safe in the arms of the father,
You are safe in the arms of the father(x2)
(chorus)
Where will you find
peace when you cry?
In these hard times
it's not in what you hold onto,
it's in the who's holding you tonight.(x2)
