I am but a promise,

if kept in fertile ground

Of sacred living energy

where mysteries abound

Though the world is scornful

and says that I am flawed

I wilt, but then remember

I am a work of God

So don’t let go, don’t let go

Help me flourish, let me grow

Though winds may blow

and floods may flow

Don’t let go, don’t let go.

To everything there is a season,

to blossom and mature

A time when harvest is apparent,

when blessings are made sure

But now I’m very vulnerable,

it’s by divine design

So help me, hold me, nourish me,

until it is my time

Do don’t let go, don’t let go

Help me flourish, let me grow

Though winds may blow

and floods may flow

Don’t let go, don’t let go.

I’m a tender mercy,

a gift that grows with care,

When tended by your faithful hands

and watered well with prayer.

You are now my gardener,

plant me deep in sod

For what you help me some day be,

becomes your gift to God

So, Don’t let go, don’t let go

Help me flourish, let me grow

Though winds may blow

and floods may flow

Don’t let go, don’t let go.
