INTRO
DADF#mDA
I have come to this ocean
DE
And the waves of fear are starting to grow
DAF#m
The doubts and questions are rising with the tide
DEA
So I'm clinging to the one sure thing I know
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/steven_curtis_chapman/hold_on_to_jesus_crd.html )
DA
I will hold on to the hand of my Savior
DF#m
And I will hold on with all my might
DA/C#F#m
I will hold loosely to things that are fleeting
D
And hold on to Jesus
E
I will hold on to Jesus for life
(Intro)
DA
I've tried to hold many treasures
DEA
They just keep slipping through my fingers like sand
DAF#m
But there's one treasure that means more than breath itself
DEA
So I'm clinging to it with everything I am
(Repeat Chorus)
F#mE
Like a child holding on to a promise
F#mE
I will cling to His word and believe
BmF#m
As I press on to take hold of that
DE
for which Christ Jesus took hold of me
(Repeat Chorus)
