Hang on in There
Daryl Coley Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you're so weary from your struggle
If the enemy's got you down
So you look to friends and loved ones
But there's no help to be found

So you try to keep on fighting
But the battle's been long and hard
And the enemy keeps raging
So now you put your trust in God

Keep the faith
To the end
Fight the fight
You will win
Stand your ground
Don't give in

Hang on in there
For your deliverance is nigh
You should hang on in there
The battle will be over by and by

Everyday there's a brand new
Attack from Satan's hand
And he tries so hard to make you
Run away again and again

Everyday you're faced with something
You've never dealt with before
As you seek the Lord for guidance
Your faith he will restore

Keep the faith
To the end
Fight the fight
You will win
Stand your ground
Don't give in

Hang on in there
(Oh)
For your deliverance is nigh
Oh just hang on in there
(Oh yeah)
The battle will be over by and by

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood
But against powers and principality
So fear not when you are in distress
But just know that in Christ there is victory

So you pray to Him for power
And for strength to overcome
Then by faith you start to praise Him
(Hallelujah)
For the battle is clearly won

Keep the faith
'Til the end
Fight the fight
You'll win
Stand your ground
But don't give in

Just hang on in there
(Oh oh oh yes)
For your deliverance is nigh
Saints just hang on in there
(Oh)
The battle will be over by and by
(Yi)

All you got to do is just hang on in there
Don't you know your deliverance is nigh
You should just hang on in there
(Oh oh oh oh yes)
The battle will be over by and by
(Yi yi)

Hang on hang on in there
Don't you know that your deliverance
Your deliverance your deliverance is nigh
(Yeah)
Church just hang on in there




(Oh hey yeah)
The battle will be over by and by
