Jasmine Murray - While You Were Holding Me Lyrics

While you were holding me

You were praying prayers that only mamas do

While you were holding me

You were fighting battles your babies never knew

And I never knew 'til now just how strong you were

Drying all my tears while fighting yours

Chorus:

All that darkness you lived through

Couldn’t dim the light inside of you

All the broken pieces

You kept giving them to Jesus

And He gave you strength to raise me up

Knowing one day I would see

He was holding you

While you were holding me

While you were holding me

You were showing what it means to live by faith

And you taught me to believe

There is hope even in the deepest pain

I remember every day

All that darkness you lived through

Couldn't dim the light inside of you

All the broken pieces

You kept giving them to Jesus

And He gave you strength to raise me up

Knowing one day I would see

He was holding you

While you were holding me

Oh, you spent so many hours, down upon your knees

Shaking on the gates of heaven, calling angels down for me

So selflessly you gave, made me who I am today

And I never knew 'til now, just how strong you were

All that darkness you lived through

Couldn’t dim the light inside of you

All the broken pieces

You kept giving them to Jesus

And He gave you strength to raise me up

Knowing one day I would see

He was holding you

He was holding you

While you were holding me

You were holding me
