“You have to carry the fire." I don't know how to." Yes, you do." Is the fire real? The fire?" Yes it is." Where is it? I don't know where it is." Yes you do. It's inside you. It always was there. I can see it.” ― Cormac McCarthy, The Road
Lyrics: I will hold your hand, love As long as I can, love Though the powers rise against us Though your fears assail you And your body may fail you There's a fire that burns within us And we dream in the night Of a city descending With the sun in the center And a peace unending I will carry the fire for you And we kneel in the water The sons and the daughters And we hold our hearts before us And we look to the distance And raise our resistance In the face of the forces Gathered against us And we dream in the night Of a king and a kingdom Where joy writes the songs And the innocent sing them I will carry the fire for you Oh, sing on, sing on When your hope is gone Sing on, sing on (Light up the darkness) And we dream in the night Of a feast and a wedding And the groom in his glory When the bride is made ready I will carry the fire for you
He's an ambassador and gives us a tune to march to. We fight the fight of faith so we can look ahead with determination, joy and hope; which gives us the strength for resistance. It takes a vision to keep carrying the light, and we do it not only for ourselves but those around us and those we love.

“You have to carry the fire."
I don't know how to."
Yes, you do."
Is the fire real? The fire?"
Yes it is."
Where is it? I don't know where it is."
Yes you do. It's inside you. It always was there. I can see it.”

Just read about this song in Adorning the Dark and had to listen to it. Great anthem, Mr. Peterson, and I love the story behind it too.
This song is seriously sacred. . . sometimes I listen with tears as I long for the Groom in His glory. Come quickly, Lord Jesus, come!
After being there, it looks like IRELAND to me! What a great place to be, singing this wonderful song! Super!
Beautiful, may all our fires burn brighter in the days to come. God bless.
His music is awesome. Let us all carry the fire for one another!
Lyrics:
I will hold your hand, love
As long as I can, love
Though the powers rise against us
Though your fears assail you
And your body may fail you
There's a fire that burns within us
And we dream in the night
Of a city descending
With the sun in the center
And a peace unending
I will carry the fire for you
And we kneel in the water
The sons and the daughters
And we hold our hearts before us
And we look to the distance
And raise our resistance
In the face of the forces
Gathered against us
And we dream in the night
Of a king and a kingdom
Where joy writes the songs
And the innocent sing them
I will carry the fire for you
Oh, sing on, sing on
When your hope is gone
Sing on, sing on
(Light up the darkness)
And we dream in the night
Of a feast and a wedding
And the groom in his glory
When the bride is made ready
I will carry the fire for you
I will carry the fire! Thank you for sharing this, when hope is gone I will sing on. It's not easy but necessary.
Same here. Wonderful concert!
He's an ambassador and gives us a tune to march to.
We fight the fight of faith so we can look ahead with determination, joy and hope; which gives us the strength for resistance.
It takes a vision to keep carrying the light, and we do it not only for ourselves but those around us and those we love.

I love the close up of Andrew's feet. Reminds me of a little boy.
