Prompt / Lyrics
Intro (guitar pulse, steady snare) We keep the light till morning comes Verse 1 Dust and dawn on a weathered map Boots on the ground, steady as the clap Radio hums the same old tune We trace the stars and follow the moon Letters folded up inside a hand Names on a ribbon, carved in sand Pre-Chorus When the night gets loud and the road feels long I find a hymn in the steady song Chorus (anthemic) Hold the beacon, let it burn through the dark One small flame, one beating heart We’ll keep the promise, keep the line, keep the home in sight Hold the beacon, hold it through the night Verse 2 Eyes on the skyline, dreams on the sleeve Stories traded like glass in the breeze Photos tucked where the sunlight bends Voices on the wire call out like friends Every step is a vow we make Every dawn is a chance to take Pre-Chorus When the orders come and the silence grows We stand together where the cold wind blows Chorus (bigger) Hold the beacon, let it burn through the dark One small flame, one beating heart We’ll keep the promise, keep the line, keep the home in sight Hold the beacon, hold it through the night Bridge (soaring, guitars rise) Flags may falter in the storm, but not our hands We write our hope across the sky like a plan Count the names, count the miles—every step is known We carry light until the weary get home Breakdown (soft, intimate) Whispered prayers and a scratched-out map Coffee cups and a worn-out cap I fold your letter and hold it close Promise me, promise me we’ll make it home Final Chorus (full band, triumphant) Hold the beacon, let it burn through the dark One small flame, one beating heart We’ll keep the promise, keep the line, keep the home in sight Hold the beacon, hold it through the night Hold the beacon till the morning is bright We come back to the fields, to the porchlight We’ll keep the promise, keep the line, keep the home in sight Hold the beacon—hold it through the night Outro (gentle, hopeful) We keep the light till morning comes Hold the beacon—wait for the sun
