“Keep the Flame”
by Scott McGuire
Lyrics
Verse 1
The house still sleeping, still dark outside
Coffee in her hands, hiding the tired in her eyes
Goes to a job she don’t dream about at night
But she’ll face the storm to keep the home fire alight
Verse 2
Feet aching by the time she turns the key
Dinner on the table though she’s running on empty
Some nights a glass of wine is how she breathes
In the quiet, she prays for the strength she needs
Chorus
She’s the rock in the rain, the hand that won’t let go
The one holding the line when the world says no
She fights for love, she fights to keep the flame
Every sacrifice she’s made, she’d make again
She fights for love, she fights for love, not fame
Every sacrifice she’s made, she’d make again
Verse 3
Scars on her heart from the battles she’s fought
Lessons in the tears that the years have taught
Carries more than anyone sees or knows
The weight has carved the steel in her soul
Pre-Chorus
This is a season, it’s not the end
She leans on God, she leans on Him
One day she’ll see what the struggle was for
When the life she’s been building knocks on her door
Chorus
She’s the rock in the rain, the hand that won’t let go
The one holding the line when the world says no
She fights for love, she fights to keep the flame
Every sacrifice she’s made, she’d make again
She fights for love, she fights for love, not fame
The life she was meant to live is calling her name
