Hold on to Jesus and tell Him about everything
Your dreams and your troubles, pure hearts desire one thing
And mine is to know You, mine is to break down
And shatter to pieces and lose everything I've found
I'm learning that nothing worth anything is cheap
I'm learning the path is thin and the grade is steep
And that the altars where we lay ourselves will crack when tested
And that there's only one that turns our hearts to gold
Hold on to Jesus and tell Him about everything
Your dreams and your troubles, pure hearts desire one thing
And mine is to know You, mine is to break down
And shatter to pieces and lose everything I've found
I'm finding that I'm not who I once thought I was
I'm finding I'm powerless to obtain Your love
And that the only gifts I bring to You are rags and failures
And through a strange exchange You've made them myrrh and gold
Hold on to Jesus and tell Him about everything
Your dreams and your troubles, pure hearts desire one thing
And mine is to know You and mine is to break down
And shatter to pieces and lose everything I've found
And lose everything I've found and lose everything I've found
