Brothers and Sisters
The war has been heavy
But his burden's light
Misses and misters
I know that you're weary
But don't lose the fight.
And for the elders and deacons
And all you shining beacons
Don't get discouraged
'Cause His love is keeping you strong
(Chorus)
Keep the home fires burning
With His eternal flame
Keep on living what you're learning
And you'll never be the same
The good news has come from heaven
The war's already won
That's why I wrote this letter
From the front.
Pastors and teachers
Disciple His children
And tend to your flock
Prophets and preachers
Keep sharing the Gospel
Of Jesus our Rock
And for all the intercessors
Who deal with all the pressures:
Don't get discouraged
'Cause His love is keeping you strong
(Chorus)
Keep the fire burning
Keep on shining
Oh, keep shining your light
Keep it burning
(Chorus)
Keep the home fires burning...
