Lyrics
Hold Back the Wind, Donna
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.
it's the little things you do
that you don't think break through
you build a mansion
with God's Son
you light a candle
and the kingdom comes
doesn't seem like much now
like you're the failing one
but hold back the wind, donna
hold back the wind, donna
stand in the breach with us, donna
and hold back the devil wind
it's the little prayer you pray
or the little lie you say
it's love and hate
but choosing love
faith winning out
against the odds
doesn't seem like much now
a losing cause
but hold back the wind, donna
hold back the wind, donna
stand in the breach with us, donna
and hold back the devil wind
the grass is breaking through
it's just a blade or two
up through the concrete
and the angels smile
will be a green field
in just a little while
seems like we're asking too much
from one little child
but hold back the wind, donna
hold back the wind, donna
stand in the breach with us, donna
and hold back the devil wind
yeah, hold back the wind, donna
hold back the wind, donna
stand in the breach with us, donna
and hold back the devil wind
yeah, hold back the wind
yeah, hold back the wind
