Keep me past the gate I've worn the world without a word And I don't care too much for what they say Grip my smothering end Another day will pass again Keep my fire alive for I'm not afraid Can I make them understand Who in the world would have thought this God, I'll never know your plans Doin' what I got to That's what I got to hang on 'Cause I'm doin' what I got to That's what I got to hang on That's â€~cause I doin' what I got to That's what I got to hang on Hanging on by a thread this is what I got So hang on to this Keep me pacified The light will never see my face For this seems like a better place Keep them entertained I've lost the feel, I've lost the pain For this seems to be a better place Can I make them understand Who in the world would have thought this God, I'll never know your plans Doin' what I got to That's what I got to hang on 'Cause I'm doin' what I got to That's what I got to hang on That's â€~cause I doin' what I got to That's what I got to hang on Hanging on by a thread this is what I got So hang on to this Maybe you'll find what you seek, yeah If you hold on to truth Yet your truth will set you free, yeah yeah Doin' what I got to That's what I got to hang on Yeah, hanging on by a thread This is what I got I said, I'm doin' what I got to That's what I got to hang on Doin' what I got to That's what I got to hang on Hang on to this Hang on to this Hang on to this
