INTRO
[D] [A/C#] [D] [F#m]
[D]I have come to this [A]ocean
And the [D]waves of fear are [E]starting to grow
[D]The doubts and questions are [A]rising with the [F#m]tide
So I'm [D]clinging to the [E]one sure thing I [A]know
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/steven_curtis_chapman/hold_on_to_jesus_crd.html )
I will hold [D]on to the hand of my [A]Savior
And I will hold [D]on with all my [F#m]might
I will hold [D]loosely to things that are[A/C#] flee[F#m]ting
And [D]hold on to Jesus
I will [E]hold on to Jesus for life
(Intro)
[D]I've tried to hold many [A]treasures
They just keep [D]slipping through my [E]fingers like [A]sand
[D]But there's one treasure that means [A]more than breath [F#m]itself
So I'm [D]clinging to it with [E]everything I [A]am
(Repeat Chorus)
[F#m]Like a child holding [E]on to a promise
[F#m]I will cling to His [E]word and believe
[Bm]As I press on to [F#m]take hold of that
for which [D]Christ Jesus took hold of [E]me
(Repeat Chorus)
