Hold Fast

[Verse 1]
From the harbor wall to the hilltop stone,
We carried our names where the wild winds roam.
Your old green scarf and my father’s ring,
We raised them high when the bells began to sing.

[Pre-Chorus]
One by one, the valley answered back,
Boots on the road and a flag in the black.

[Chorus]
Hold fast, hold fast, let the whole world know,
We are the fire that the hard rains couldn’t drown.
Side by side, with our hearts held high,
We’ll stand together till the morning comes around.
Hold fast, hold fast—hear the mountains call,
No one walks alone when we rise as one for all.

[Verse 2]
There’s a crack in the cup from the winter gone,
There’s a mark on the door where the years leaned on.
But you still laugh loud in the kitchen light,
And the old road opens when we step outside.

[Pre-Chorus]
One by one, the valley answers back,
Hands to the sky and a flag in the black.

[Chorus]
Hold fast, hold fast, let the whole world know,
We are the fire that the hard rains couldn’t drown.
Side by side, with our hearts held high,
We’ll stand together till the morning comes around.
Hold fast, hold fast—hear the mountains call,
No one walks alone when we rise as one for all.

[Bridge]
If your voice breaks, I’ll carry the line,
If your feet tire, take hold of mine.
Through the long years, through the rising tide,
Keep this promise: we don’t leave our own behind.

[Final Chorus]
Hold fast, hold fast, let the whole world know,
We are the fire that the hard rains couldn’t drown.
Side by side, with our hearts held high,
We’ll stand together till the morning comes around.
Hold fast, hold fast—hear the mountains call,
No one walks alone when we rise as one for all.
Hold fast! Hold fast!
We rise as one for all.

[Outro]
We rise as one for all.
