You ask me how it is that I'm still standing

You wonder how I made it through the storm

I can't boast of any special powers
There's no secret,

I just held on I held on til the storm was over

I don't claim to be a hero
I don't have all the answers
but I held on til the storm was over
It's not because I'm good
Not because I'm great
Not because I'm strong
I just held on

I can tell that things are finally happening

I've got blessings I can call my own
There were so many times I wondered
If I would make it, but while I was wondering
I just kept on holding on

I held on til the storm was over I don't claim to be a hero I don't have all the
answers but I held on til the storm was over It's not because I'm good Not
because I'm great Not because I'm strong I just held on You see I held on to
faith (I held on) And I held on to God I would not think of letting go My foot
was planted on the rock See I held to prayer And I held on to what He said (I
held on) I held on to all that I had left I held on til the storm was over I don't
claim to be a hero I don't have all the answers but I held on til the storm was
over It's not because I'm good Not because I'm great Not because I'm strong I
just held on wooohoooooo... In spite of everything that I've been through I'm
still standing I gotta tell somebody Just hold on to His hand Oooh... The waves
are crashing The winds are blowing It's gonna be alright if you'll just Hold on
til the storm is over You don't have to be a hero You don't have to have the
answers but just hold on til the storm is over It's not because you're good Not
because you're great Not because you're strong Just hold on Ooooh.
