Carry The Fire
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I will hold your hand, love
As long as I can, love
Though the powers rise against us
Though your fears assail you
And your body may fail you
There's a fire that burns within us
And we dream in the night
Of a city descending
With the sun in the center
And a peace unending
I will carry the fire for you
And we kneel in the water
The sons and the daughters
And we hold our hearts before us
And we look to the distance
And raise our resistance
In the face of the forces
Gathered against us
And we dream in the night
Of a king and a kingdom
Where joy writes the songs
And the innocent sing them
I will carry the fire for you
Oh, sing on, sing on
When your hope is gone
Sing on, sing on
(Light up the darkness)
And we dream in the night
Of a feast and a wedding
And the groom in his glory
When the bride is made ready
I will carry the fire for you
