Steve Osborne - Hold Fast Hope lyrics

How can you be sleeping? Waves like weapons crash O'er us, cry for mercy and hold fast hope Who of us is cursed, or do we have to ask Search your souls and hold fast If no one speaks a word, then let the lots be cast Truth be told and hold fast White d**h wakes in black skies, mark your maker's wrath Fear and flames of azure climb the crooked the mast You will yet be baptized, steeped in shattered gla** Sink and sing your answer and hold fast hope As strong arms grip your shoulders Like dead hands of the past Pray as you're tossed over This breath could be your last Quiet and cold Silent and slow Night black as coal Miles here below Find your faith and dive deep, through living gateways pa** Lined with d**h and ivory, and hold fast, hold fast Deep beneath the black dawn, leagues from lightning's flash (Ribs will raise cathedrals) Ribs will raise cathedrals for the morning ma** (For the morning ma**) Steel yourself in sackcloth, roll your heart in ash (Scrape your skin with steel wool) Scrape your skin with steel wool and hold fast hope (Roll your heart in ash) [tag] Ribs will raise cathedrals for the morning ma** Scrape your skin with steel wool Cross your heart and hold fast hope Hold fast hope, hold fast hope
