All alone in the cold-hearted night, I was fading fast.
You came to me in a whole new way and it came to pass.
I can't believe You opened up the way,
With tears now, I ask
Don't let go of my heart,
Don't ever leave me here too long in isolation.
Don't let go of my heart,
I do believe You're here, to offer consolation.
There were signs all along the road
And throughout my life.
Gentle reminders of the way I should go,
And You were by my side.
Oh let me see what I long to behold, open my eyes.
Don't let go of my heart,
Don't ever leave me here too long in isolation.
Don't let go of my heart,
I do believe You're here, securing my salvation.
The dawn of light is nearing,
The night is disappearing,
I'm looking through the clearing
Waiting to embrace You.
Don't let go of my heart,
For You are with me here,
I know You'll leave me never,
Don't let go of my heart,
You are my guiding light,
Forever and forever.
