Two months is too little
They let him go, they had no
Sudden healing
To think that providence would
Take a child from his mother while she prays
Is appalling
Who told us we'd be rescued
This is what it means to be held, how it feels
When the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved, and to know
That the promise was when everything fell
We'd be held
Verse: Same chords as verse 1
If hope is born of suffering
If this is only the beginning
Can we not wait for one hour
Watching for our Savior
This is what it means to be held, how it feels
When the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved, and to know
That the promise was when everything fell
We'd be held
This is what it is to be loved, and to know
That the promise was when everything fell
We'd be held
This is what it means to be held
