Holding On

A poem to hold on...

The night's been long

But hold on, my friend

The night's been long

and soon it will end.

May the Lord, our Rock,

Who keeps your soul

Make the darkness light

and your heart console.

Fret not yourself

against evildoers,

for one day, He said,

they'll be fewer and fewer.

Trust in the Lord,

He will bring it to pass

and you will see victory

Come...at last!

Hold on, my friend,

my friend, hold on!

Soon you'll be singing

a 'victory' song!
