Hold Back the Night

Hymn on ONE LICENSE

Hold back the night. Give me strength to fight.

Author: Charles Nicks
Tune: [Hold back the night]

Representative Text

Hold back the night.
Give me strength to fight.
I'll do your will if you just say to my soul:
peace, be still.
O Lord, I love your name.
Ev'ry day you're just the same.
I'll be all right if you hold back the night.
