Andrew Peterson - Hold Up My Arms lyrics

Girl, I'd be lying if I promised you

Every word I ever said was true

But I can promise you this:

I'm gonna fall--blown over like a ship at sea

By the howling sins of history

Oh, but don't you forget

To hold up my arms

Like Moses in the desert

When the battle ran long

Hold up my arms

We can go at this together

When my arms aren't strong

I want you to know that I'm prouder than a peacock, babe

You light me up just like a birthday cake

When you walk in the room

And I just wanna make you proud

So, baby, when I let you down

What I need you to do

Is hold up my arms

Like Moses in the desert

When the battle ran long

Hold up my arms

We can go at this together

When my arms aren't strong

Girl, I'd be lying if I promised you

Every word I ever said was true

But I can promise you this:

I'll do my best to try and do my very best for you

It's the very best that I can do

It's the best I can give

So hold up my arms

I said hold up my arms

Like Moses in the desert

When the battle ran long

Hold up my arms

We can go at this together

When my arms aren't strong
