Never Let Go

artist: Matt Redman

This song has a sweet meaning for me - really it is a sweet memory - every time I hear this song I can picture my 2 oldest granddaughters singing. Several years ago on one of their summer visits here to Texas - the song came on the radio in the car and they both got so excited that "their" song was on Grammie's radio. They both started singing as loud as they could and it was just the cutest thing. For the two weeks they were here - it seemed it came on the radio every time we got in the car and so we all 3 sang together each time. At that time they were 4 and 6 years old. Today they are 10 and 12 years. It will always be "our song".


Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death

Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I'm caught in the middle of the storms of this life
I won't turn back
I know you are near


And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?


(Chorus:)


Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me




And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We'll live to know You here on the earth




(Chorus)


Yes, I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You, still I will praise You




(Chorus 2x's)
