I remember when daddy used to tell us bedtime stories
As we went to sleep, choosing words that last forever, ooh
And when i'm feeling lost, thinking that i cannot find my way
Those words still come to me while i'm kneeling down to pray
I can hear daddy say: keep the faith and hold on
And don't let go of the promises in what he said
Troubles don't last always
Don't let go to the mystery of his word
Cause joy's gonna come in the morning
Don't let go, don't let go, ooh, ooh
I remember times i tried to do it all my way
It always seemed to end with me falling on my face, ooh
The long and winding road sometimes turn into a pile of sand
Those words still come to me while i'm kneeling down,
Kneeling down to pray
I can feel my daddy say: keep the faith and hold on
Don't let go of the promises in what he said
Troubles don't last always, ooh
Don't let go to the mystery of his word
Cause joy's gonna come in the morning
Daddy said: all the angels are singing in heaven
And i know they can be heard everywhere
Through the trials and tribulations we go through
We can hear them singing everywhere, yeah, everywhere
Singing don't let go of the promises in what he said
Troubles don't last always
Don't let go to the mystery of his word
Cause joy's gonna come in the morning
Don't let go...
Daddy said: always keep the faith
Don't let go...
Faith is the substance of things hoped for
Don't let go...
Evidence of things not seen
Don't let go...
Hold on to your dreams
Don't let go...
He said: no one can tear you down
Don't let go...
Once you have the knowledge, boy
Don't let go...
Don't let nobody steal your joy, ooh
Don't let go...
Don't you lean to your own understanding
Don't let go...
Let your father direct your path
Don't let go...
Speak it, see it, dream it
Don't let go...
Then you can believe it
Don't let go...
And you can live
Don't let go...
My daddy told me
Don't let go...
Now that your body's the temple
Spirit the most high, God lives within you, boy
I said: thank you father, ooh
Daddy, i won't let go, you put your love so deep inside of me
And all of my brothers and sisters
I'm so glad you were a grand man
Don't let go...
