Hold On To His Word

Gospel
Big Sunday-morning gospel choir with organ
and tight rhythm section; verses start intimate with a single female vocal and light keys
then the chorus explodes with full choir
and call-and-response ad-libs. Dynamics rise each hook
final chorus modulates up with handclaps and sustained harmonies.

[Verse 1]
Doctor said
"it looks real bad"
Bills stacked higher than your bed
You been praying till your voice went weak
Still feels like heaven hasn't read your text
[Chorus]
Hold on to His word
Even when your hands feel tired
When the night runs long
And your faith feels thin
Worn quiet
Hold on to His word
It’s the rock under your feet
When your heart cries out
That's the place your God will meet you
[Verse 2]
Mama left way too soon
Chair still waiting in that room
You ask
"Why did You take my friend?"
Silence sitting heavy on your chest again
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[call-and-response]
Leader: Can I get a witness?
Choir: He's been good
So good
Leader: When you felt forgotten?
Choir: He still pulled you through
Leader: When the storm kept raging?
Choir: He was in that boat
All: If He did it once
He can do it once more
[Chorus]
