Hold Our Children Fast (Psalm 78)

Verse 1

We regret the things we've lost
And name the failures from our past
We confess the common sin
Of our fathers and our mothers
We won’t hide them from our children

Chorus

Our hope, it is not in our own strength
Made or lost in the darkness of the past
Oh our hope, it is in your saving pow'r
For in ev'ry age your love will last
And you will hold our children fast

Verse 2

We refuse to follow God
Or trust his power to provide
We complain and test his grace
But he shows us loving kindness
We won’t hide it from our children
