  • You spoke a word and life began
    Told oceans where to start and where to end
    You set in motion time and space
    But still You come and You call to me by name
    But still You come and You call to me by name

    If You can hold the stars in place
    You can hold my heart the same
    Whenever I fall away
    Whenever I start to break
    So here I am, lifting up my heart
    To the one who holds the stars

    The deepest depths, the darkest nights
    Can't separate, can't keep me from Your sight
    I get so lost, forget my way
    But still You love and You don't forget my name

    If You can hold the stars in place
    You can hold my heart the same
    Whenever I fall away
    Whenever I start to break
    So here I am, lifting up my heart

    If You can calm the raging sea
    You can calm the storm in me
    You're never too far away
    You never show up too late
    So here I am, lifting up my heart
    To the one who holds the stars

    Your love has called my name
    What do I have to fear?
    What do I have to fear?
    Your love has called my name
    What do I have to fear?
    What do I have to fear?

    If You can hold the stars in place
    You can hold my heart the same
    Whenever I fall away
    Whenever I start to break
    So here I am, lifting up my heart (lifting up my heart)

    If You can calm the raging sea
    You can calm the storm in me
    You're never too far away
    You never show up too late
    So here I am, lifting up my heart
    To the one who holds the stars

    You're the one who holds the stars Writer/s: Jason Ingram, John Cooper, Korey Cooper, Seth Mosley
