Hold On lyrics

No one, no, will let me come in,

Doors all fastened and the windows pinned!

Keep your hands on the plough, hold on.

Noah done said you lost your track,

Can't plough straight ahead and keep a-looking back!

Keep your hands on the plough, hold on.

Hold on, hold on!

Keep your hands on the plough, hold on!

Hold on, hold on!

Keep your hands on the plough, hold on!

Mary had a golden chain,

Every link was the Jesus' name!

Keep your hands on the plough, hold on.

Keep on ploughing, and never tire,

Every road goes higher and higher!

Keep your hands on the plough, hold on.

Hold on, hold on!

Keep your hands on the plough, hold on!

Hold on, hold on!

Keep your hands on the plough, hold on!

If you wanna get to heaven, I'll tell you how,

Just keep your hand on the gospel plow

Keep your hands on the plough, hold on.

If that plough thing's in your hand,

Lands you straight in the promised land!

Keep your hands on the plough, hold on.

Hold on, hold on!

Keep your hands on the plough, hold on!

Hold on, hold on!

Keep your hands on the plough, hold on!

Hold on, hold on!

Keep your hands on the plough, hold on!
