Song Lyrics


What Held Me
by Doug Anderson

Album: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow


So lost I thought I'd never be home
So lonely even when I wasn't alone
The face in the mirror
Must have been somebody else
'Cause when I look straight into my own eyes
I couldn't find myself
That was me, that was then
What a prison I was in

But what held me
Doesn't hold me anymore
Mercy is an endless open door
All the blame, all the shame
All the pain
Are just chains upon the floor
'Cause what held me
Doesn't hold me anymore

So, this is what it means to be found
So loved, so held, so chosen somehow
The sweet arms of Jesus
Have been reaching out for me
But the more He holds me in His grace
The more I'm finally free
This is me, this is now
I'm a free man walking out

What held me
Doesn't hold me anymore
Mercy is an endless open door
All the blame, all the shame
All the pain
Are just chains upon the floor
'Cause what held me
Doesn't hold me anymore

I feel like Lazarus
Coming back to life
Breathing new air deep
Into this heart of mine

What held me
Doesn't hold me

What held me
Doesn't hold me anymore
Mercy is an endless open door
All the blame, all the shame
All the pain
Are just chains upon the floor
'Cause what held me
Doesn't hold me anymore
