Two months is too little
They let him go
They had no sudden healing
To think that providence
Would take a child from his mother
While she prays, is appalling
Who told us we'd be rescued
What has changed and
Why should we be saved from nightmares
We're asking why this happens to us
Who have died to live, it's unfair
[Chorus]
This is what it means to be held
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was when everything fell
We'd be held
This hand is bitterness
We want to taste it and
Let the hatred numb our sorrows
The wise hand opens slowly
To lilies of the valley and tomorrow
[Chorus]
This is what it means to be held
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was when everything fell
We'd be held
[Bridge]
If hope is born of suffering
If this is only the beginning
Can we not wait, for one hour
Watching for our savior
[Chorus]
This is what it means to be held
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was when everything fell
We'd be held
We'd be held
This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was when everything fell
We'd be held

Review about Held This song put me in a better place. | Reviewer: Rhonda | 11/3/09
Several years ago, a little girl in Meeker, Oklahoma, was killed by her stepfather after being abused for years by him and by her mother. Her name was Kelsey and she was nearly 3 years old. Her real father was in the Army, I believe, and was overseas when she died. The story itself was enough to break your heart but the TV news here showed pictures of her at various times during her life with bruises on her face and body and once with casts on both of her little legs. I have a daughter who is 7 years old now. In one video shown of Kelsey, she was wearing the same outfit that my daughter wore at her age! Needless to say, that did it. Every time her story came on the news, my husband would turn it off because I would start to cry. Every darn time! My soul was so sick because I couldn't understand how God had let this happen to this little girl. And then every story after that about every child that was hurt, it made me more sick and angry, especially at God. I finally heard Held by Natalie Grant on KLOVE and the lyrics comforted me. I started going back to church and now even though things are still ugly on this earth, I do feel better knowing that I am held by my Father right now and that I will be until I am with Him.

This is an amazing song..........I'm 23 and my sister died 5 years ago and i have experienced what it means to be held in god's loving and comforting hands.Often we think only about our suffering but after reading these reviews i'm moved beyond myself
Wow | Reviewer: Anna Judge | 10/13/09
What an incredibly moving song. I cry so hard whenever I hear it. I'm 13 years old and my older sister has an eating disorder that is threatening her life. This song has brought me so much comfort. I'm crying right now.
we all wanted to be held-by God | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/6/09
i am 24, and for the first time i heard this song, i love it...it gives me comfort. For all this time id been experiencing pain and hardships in life, i have this song to encourage me. I really love it.
First thing in the morning, i listen to this song on my media player, followed by a prayer before starting my work.
Thank God.
Thank you | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/29/09
I am just hearing this song for the first time tonight. As I am reading these reviews, my heart is broken for the heartache you are going through, but I want to thank you for the encouragement and faith you are showing. I am praying for each of you. Please read Hebrews 13:5
We'd be held... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/11/09
I am 18 years old and 19 wks pregnant. The father is no longer with me. At 14 wks, my baby girl was diagnosed with Non-Immune Hydrops. In her situation, it is being caused by Turner's Syndrome. At first, it looked hopeful. Yesterday, we went to see her and her edema is getting worse. She is very swollen...but Praise the Lord, she is still alive and kicking. She is my angel baby and I can only pray for a miracle but I know that whatever the outcome, God is holding me and my sweet angel.
Get Rid of the Inappropriate Ads on This Website!!! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/31/09
Whoever owns this website ought to be ashamed!!! On this page are emotional reviews of a song that points out the importance of God in our lives...and as we scroll down we see these inappropriate ads on each side of the page. There are teenagers viewing this website...get a clue!!!
Today we held the funeral for my 13day old nephew, I sat with him , talked to him, read bible stories to him , he was born at 27 weeks. Too many problems to survive but he knew he was loved. This song has stuck in my mind all day as I tried to find some comfort, I know he is with Jesus so the comfort is for me not him. Thanks for this song it will always be remembered with thoughts of Gabriel.
Lost a child | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/22/09
This song really lifted me up, when I lost my daughter 4yrs ago. I was a little over 5mths pregnant when I delivered and the doctor told me that should would only live about 10 min. then she would pass away I broke into tears when he told me she lived 20 mins took her last breath in my arms just writing this makes me tear up, but I want to say is thank you to Natalie Grant for this wonderful song that got me through a tragic time. I will always remember my daughter and I know God will always be here, and that he is taking good care of her.
