Kept Forever in His Name

The Story

Assurance that belonging to Jesus is not a fragile badge we hold — it is His name that keeps us. Security rests in the Keeper, not in our grip.

Lyrics

[Verse 1] White knuckles on the steering wheel Chasing faith that I thought I'd feel Two a.m. by the cold sink light Splashing water, shaking off the night Told my heart, "Don't you drift away" Like my hand could hold back the gray [Chorus] He holds what I let go My feet on the rock, His hands on my soul No one snatches what He claims He is able I am kept Kept forever in His name [Verse 2] I drew a fence around my fear Boarded the windows, locked the year Counted the slips from the week before Told my knuckles, "Grip the door" I cannot keep a single sheep He holds His own while I lose sleep [Chorus] He holds what I let go My feet on the rock, His hands on my soul No one snatches what He claims He is able I am kept Kept forever in His name [Verse 3] Another Monday, same old weight Hands on the wheel, the old debate I open the fists that used to clench The keep is His. I am not the fence I quit the job of saving me His hand was holding faithfully [Bridge] Now unto Him who can guard my feet Shows me blameless, whole and complete Before His glory with great joy To the only wise God forevermore [Chorus] He holds what I let go My feet on the rock, His hands on my soul No one snatches what He claims He is able I am kept Kept forever in His name [Outro] He is able I am kept.
