You ask me how it is that I’m still standing
You wonder how I made it through this storm
I can’t boast of any special powers
There’s no secret. I just held on
And I held on til the storm was over
I don’t claim to be a hero
and I don’t have all the answers
but I held on ’til the storm was over
not because I’m good, not because I’m great
not because I’m strong but I held on
I can tell that things are finally happenin’
and I’ve got blessings I can call my own
many times I wondered if I would make it
While I was wondering I just kept holding on
