Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The spring of April's gone, the leaves have all turned brown
The children are all grown up, and there's no one around
I'm lookin' over my life and all the mistakes I made
And I'm afraid, afraid (But listen)
[Verse 2]
Somebody told me that You would wash all my sins (Hallelujah)
And cleanse me from the scars that are so deep within
So I'm callin' to You, if You can hear me, I don't know how
(He's never too busy)
I was wonderin', can You hold me now?
(You are the only one)
[Verse 3]
You are the only one that's patient when I fall (And your angels)
Your angels come to save me every time I call (That's why I love You)
You don't laugh at me when I make mistakes and cry
(You're not like men) You're not like men
(You understand) You understand me
[Verse 4]
See, people change one day
They don't like you, the next they do (Know that's right)
I wish that everyone could love me just like You
So here I am, this sinful man peace won't allow
I was wondering, can You hold me now? (Hallelujah)
I was wondering, can You hold me now?
[Verse 5]
I know it seems like the storm will never pass
And it seems like the rain will never end
The Red Sea is in front of you, the Pharaoh and his armies behind you
But, my brother, if you lift your head up to the sky
[Verse 6]
God has not forgotten you (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
And His angels will camp around you
For He'll never leave you, nor forsake you
His word is true (Oh)
Did it for me, He'll do it for you
[Verse 7]
To every broken person that may hear this song
(Yeah, to every boy or girl)
To every boy or girl that feels their smile is gone (That feels)
(See, I know) I know exactly how it feels to lay in the bed at night
(All night long, you just) And cry
(Tear after tear, but listen) And cry
[Verse 8]
Don't you worry, God is faithful and He cares (About ya)
About the tears you've cried  and the pain you feel is there (The pain)
(Hallelujah, when you are weak)
When you are weak that's when He's strong (That's when)
Even though you don't know how
(I wish I could get a witness up in here somewhere, say it)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 9]
God can and He will hold you now (God can)
God can and He will hold you now (And He will hold you now)
(No matter what you've done, God can)
God can and He will hold you now (And He will hold you now)
[Verse 10]
(Don't you worry) Don't you worry
(He can) He can hold you now
[Verse 11]
(Thank You)
(Thank You)
[Verse 12]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
(He loves you) Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(Hallelujah)
