Hold the Light Songtext
von Caedmon’s Call

It′s been a long year
Like a sleepless night
Jacob wrestled the angel
But I'm too tired to fight
Every Wednesday
For two years we′ve met
I showed you all my anger
My doubts and bitterness

There was no judgment in your eyes
Just the silent peace of God
That felt so real in you

Will you hold the light for me?
Will you hold the light for me?


And I stay up late
'Cause I cannot sleep
I don't want to face the quiet
When it′s just God and me
′Cause I'm waiting for the gavel
Handing me the sentence down
′Cause I don't believe forgiveness
Or even repentance now

There was no judgment in your eyes
Just the silent peace of God
That felt so real in you

Will you hold the light for me?
Will you hold the light for me?

I want to feel redemption
Flowing through my veins
I want to see with clear eyes
Beyond lust and hate
I want the war to be over
And know the good guys won
I want love to hold me
And know I′m not alone


Standing 'round a willow weeping
We were praying in the backyard
Ooh
In the chill of the night
The friendship light reminded me
Who we are
Who we are
Who we are
Will you hold the light?
Will you hold the light for me?
