Verse One

I almost let go
I felt like I just couldn't take life anymore,
My problems had me bound, depression weighed me down,
But God held me close so I wouldn't let go.
God's mercies kept me, so I wouldn't let go.

Verse Two

I almost gave up,
I was right at the edge of a breakthrough but couldn't see it!
The devil really had me
But Jesus came and grabbed me,
And He held me close, so I wouldn't let go
God's mercies kept me, so I wouldn't let go.

Chorus

So I'm here today, because God kept me
I'm alive today, only becuase of His grace
Oh He kept me
God kept me, He kept me
So I wouldn't let go
