Wake up brother lift your eyes
Feel the sun see the light
There's a reason you're alive
Come on brother lift your eyes
Life is fragile don't you know
Life's a battle for the soul
Here today here to go
Don't waste time here feeling low
And when hope has sailed away
Glory's made its grave
Keep on keeping on
When the devil's arm seems strong, brother
Keep on keeping on
Day by day night by night
Take it slow it's alright
Don't give up before you try
Come on brother it's alright
You get high you get low
You forget what you know
I can tell you feel alone
Lay it down now come on home
And when hope has sailed away
Glory's made its grave
Keep on keeping on
When the devil's arm seems strong, brother
Keep on keeping on
Keep your head up, brother [x4]
And when hope has sailed away
Glory's made its grave
Keep on keeping on
When the devil's arm seems strong, brother
Keep on keeping on
Keeping on
