Keep the Faith

I've seen the lightning flashing, heard the thunder roll, roll

I feel the cold winds blowing

Trying to conquer my soul

If I just hold my peace

Let the Lord fight my battles

If I keep the faith through the night

And if I just...

I hear the voice of reason

Telling me to fight on

'Cause I know I've come to far to turn around

Weeping may endure for a night

But joy is gonna come tomorrow

Though I go through the fire

I shall come out as pure gold

When problems come just keep the faith

It won't be long until the day

Things will turn around if you just

Just stand your ground

If I just hold my peace

Let the Lord fight my battles

If I just keep the faith through the night

If I just hold my peace

Let the Lord fight my battles

(I don't have to fight no more)

If I just keep the faith through the night

(through the night, through the night, through the night)

When problems come just keep the faith

It won't be long until the day

Things will turn around if you just

Just stand your ground

I only have to keep the faith

(I only have to keep the faith)

I only have to keep the faith

(I don't have to fight no more, no no no)

I only have to keep the faith

I only have to keep the faith

(I only have to keep the faith)

I only have to keep the faith

(The faith, the faith)

I only have to keep the faith

(I'm gonna keep the faith)

I only have to keep the faith

(Keep the faith through the night)

I only have to keep the faith

I only have to keep the faith

(Come too far to turn around)

I only have to keep the faith

(Joy is gonna come tomorrow)

I only have to keep the faith

I only have to keep the faith

I only have to keep the faith

(I'm gonna keep it, I've gotta keep it)

I only have to keep the faith

('Cause I've never seen the righteous forsaken)

I only have to keep the faith

I only have to keep the faith

I only have to keep the faith

I only have to keep the faith

I only have to keep the faith

I only have to keep the faith
