Verse 1
When the year has been unkind,
and the hearts of the people are broken.
When the winter is long and wild,
and life like the earth becomes frozen.
Chorus 1
In the darkest night, there’s a light that shines,
There’s a hope that’s burning in the shadows
Like a seam of gold in a shattered world,
There is One who holds it all together
Verse 2
If you’re plagued by anxiety,
If your fear for the future’s unspoken
If you’ve nurtured your dreams from seed,
But the harvest has failed or been stolen
Chorus 2
In the darkest night, He’s the light that shines,
He’s the hope that’s burning in the shadows
Like a seam of gold in a shattered world,
He’s the One who holds it all together
Bridge:
See the light shining
Hope is arising
Every sorrow, traded for joy
Creation is longing
His kingdom is coming
So hold on, hold on
Chorus 3
You’re the risen Christ, You’re the morning light
And the hope that lifts me from the shadows
Like a seam of gold in my shattered world,
You’re the One who holds it all together
Hold On By St Aldates Worship
