Bm               G        D/F#            (A/C#)  Bm 
I try to hold on to this world with everything I have
                 G       D/F#                              A/C#)    Bm
But I feel the weight of what it brings, and the hurt that trys to grab
                      G      D/F#                   (A/C#)      Bm 
The many trials that seem to never end, His word declares this truth,
                   G       D/F#         (A/C#)    G
that we will enter in this rest with wonders anew 


[Pre-Chorus]

G            D/F#    Asus4                 D/F#      G
But I hold on to this hope and the promise that He brings
                      D/F#     Asus4
That there will be a place with no more suffering 


[Chorus]

                 G                Bm            Asus4              Dsus4
There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more fears
                 G                            Bm               Asus4
There will be a day when the burdens of this place, will be no more, 
                         D
we'll see Jesus face to face
     Bm        A/C#  G
But until that day,     we'll hold on to you always

[Verse 2]

Bm                  G       D/F#
I know the journey seems so long
                    (A/C#)    Bm
You feel your walking on your own
                     G     D/F#
But there has never been a step
                       (A/C#) Bm 
Where you've walked out all alone 


[Verse 3]

                     G         D/F#
Troubled soul don't lose your heart
               (A/C#)    Bm
Cause joy and peace he brings
                 G       D/F#
And the beauty that's in store
                      (A/C#)       G 
Outweighs the hurt of life's sting


[Pre-Chorus]

G            D/F#    Asus4                 D/F#      G
But I hold on to this hope and the promise that He brings
                      D/F#     Asus4
That there will be a place with no more suffering 


[Chorus]

                 G                Bm            Asus4              Dsus
There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more fears
                 G                            Bm               Asus4
There will be a day when the burdens of this place, will be no more, 
                         D
we'll see Jesus face to face
     Bm        A/C#  G
But until that day,     we'll hold on to you always


[Bridge]

Bm                                     G 
I can’t wait until that day where the very one I’ve lived for always
      D/F#                          Asus4
Will wipe away the sorrow that I’ve faced
Bm                                         G 
To touch the scars that rescued me from a life of shame and misery 
   D/F#                     Asus4
oh this is why, this is why I sing
