Hold Them Close

I know I shouldn't want

Any more than what I've got

When I think about what's missing

Seems like a lot

But then I looked into their eyes

And see my children smile

I realize what I've been given

I have more than I have not

Where I am today

Didn't happen by mistake

You're brought me here

Where I'm supposed to be

Time will sleep away

But God don't let me waste

A second of today

Not a second, one second

I'm gonna hold them close

Every memory, every little bit

And I won't let go

Everything I need is right in front of me

You've given me what matters the most

So let me hold them close

I feel the grace of God

When my wife is by my side

A treasure I could never earn

No matter how hard I try

I take a look at the past

That brought us where we are

All I see is your faithfulness

That's carried us this far

Time will sleep away

I'm so thankful for today

So God don't let me waste

One second, not a second

I'm gonna hold them close

Every memory, every little bit

And I won't let go

Everything I need is right in front of me

You've given me what matters the most

So let me hold them close

So let me hold them close

Everything that you have done

Everything you're given us

Every good from you

Gonna hold them close

Everything that you have done

Everything you're given us

Every gift from you

Gonna hold them close

I'm gonna hold them close

Every memory, every little bit

And I won't let go

Everything I need is right in front of me

You've given me what matters the most

So let me hold them close

Let me hold them close
