[Chorus 1]
Hold on forever, hold on forever
'Til I can get everything in place
Well, hold on forever, hold on forever
'Til I can see my savior's face

[Chorus 2]
I've got to smile on forever
Smile 'cause there's a million for you to enjoy
Let's just smile, smile, smile
Well, this song is for every girl and boy

[Verse 1]
I've had good times, I've had bad times
I haven't had enough
I have my ups and down, I've been turned around
I haven't given up

[Verse 2]
Don't you know everybody have to walk the line?
I have had to do my time, it's a shame my song's for free
And everybody knows that's the way it goes
The Lord is watching over me

[Chorus 3]
I think I really better hold on forever, hold on forever
'Cause there's a smile I'd like to wear
I'll hold on forever, hold on forever
'Cause, 'cause there's some joy I've got to share
[Outro]
I wanna thank somebody [Incomprehensible]
Let me keep on holding on
Let me keep on holding on
I'm ready for my saviour
I keep holding on, I keep holding on
I keep on holding on, I keep seeing face
Nothing in the world can take the place
I, I, I keep holding, I'm holding
I'm holding, I'm holding, I'm holding
