    (Audio solamente) - Hold on to the fire
    Del Album: The River Is Rising (1986), por Greg X Volz.
    ___________________________________
    You look around - see your pleasant days disappearing
    Feel like a paper hat in the path of a howling storm
    Things can turn so cold and the wind seems to never lose its breath
    Till the light inside is all that's left to keep you warm
    When ya see all you've worked for blowin' away
    And ya look at your accusers and have nothin' to say
    Hold on to the fire - to the truth that lights your desire
    Let it burn, burn, burn deep in your soul
    Hold on to the fire - as the flames climb hotter and higher
    Let the work that has begun be done in you
    Well, you can get sidetracked tryin' to search down these little alleys
    And ya usually find that there ain't much there at all
    An' I know how it feels to be stuck down in the valleys
    But sometimes you're held down so you won't die when you fall
    Coz the light's burnin' brighter - brighter than the day
    When all of the shadows are out of the way
    What have you got that they can't take away?
    You can choose what you'll do in the face of dismay
    When ya just wanna run to your shelter and hide
    And it feels like someone's fightin' a world war inside

    The first verse describes the anguish of my late teen years perfectly. I clung to this song and others like it to survive those battles. Thanks so much for posting.

      Yes the verse fit real well for me also when hurricane 🌀 irma had us in her sights last September played this song many times over while I prayed and trusted God for protection, she pounded us hard for hours, but praise the Lord we made it with the roof still on!!!

    We actually had Phil in our studio in Richwood Texas in 1987. He laid down a guitar part on a friends album. What an awesome night. I was lucky to get to video tape it.

    I saw THE RIVER IS RISING TOUR in Birmingham AL. Kim Boyce opened for Greg... Her first album had just came out. It was a great concert, but hey I was a young guy back then, Kim Boyce was Gorgeous. Took me a while to get my focus back on the Spiritual after seeing her....lol

    Can never get enough of Matthew Ward, and his actual ROCK song contributions are relatively rare. I believe he helped on Neal Morse's Testimony II album.
    Morse is a mainstream progressive rocker with a POWERFUL, joyful witness. He often does profound concept albums.The "?" [Question] CD = the tabernacle/temple's true meaning. Sola Scriptura = the life & times of Martin Luther. As part of his supergroup Transatlantic, Whirlwind = the purpose of trials & suffering. Check "Solid as the Son" on YT!

    Hmm, guess you're not gonna fix that ending. Someone used a battle axe to chop its fine ending.
