The woman needed healing
From that dreaded disease
Her money brought physicians
Only Jesus could bring relief
Though her last thread of hope
Was worn to a strand
her heart held onto faith
Til she could touch him with her hand
When you're hanging by a thread
Still you can climb lifes mountain
Though the cliffs are rough and jagged
You can cope
If you should slip and reach ropes end
You'll find the hem of his garment
Don't let go of that last thread of hope
Are you barely hanging on
By a frayed and fragile faith
Clinging to the rocks
Above the canyon of dismay
Reach out you'll find the life line
That will never break in two
Hold fast, don't lose heart
Once again God will pull you through
When you're hanging by a thread
Still you can climb lifes mountain
Though the cliffs are rough and jagged
You can cope
If you should slip and reach ropes end
You'll find the hem of his garment
Don't let go of that last thread of hope
Don't let go of that last thread of hope
