Colony House - Keep On Keeping On Lyrics






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

    I love this song....and it really gets me, when i first listened to it i cried like a baby..
    My older brother has struggled with addiction since he was 16 years old, he's 22 now. He was in a dark place for a long time, and almost took his life because of the struggle of staying clean.....today he is clean, sober..and its no coincidence that he has been really close with the lord. I try to remind myself to thank and praise god for being there for my brother even when he felt alone.

  29. r.... ....

    r.... ....

    *punctuation :D They didn't hire me obviously hehe

    r.... ....

    ronathandaman meh it's ok just a song. A good one at that!

  30. R.... W....

    That's quite an interesting rhythm you've got going on there.
    *verse: 5/4*
    *chorus/bridge: 16/8=6/8+6/8+4/8*

    R.... W....

    ​@Nick The Awesomeish
    Ron is making is more complicated than it is.
    It's a 5/8 verse and an alternating 8/4 to 5/8 chorus. The reason it can be challenging to count is because trying to count the quarter note as the beat during the 5/8 is terribly confusing and the eighth notes are quick and hard to catch on to consistently in 5/8.

    Now an interesting approach is to count it according to the accents, during the verses you'll have 123 123 12 12. That's counting the sixteenth notes but dividing them up into the accented rhythm. Then during the chorus it's 123 123 12 but this time counting the quarter notes as the beat. Ron's expansion into eighths notes during the chorus is unnecessary, the beat is clearly phrased on the quarters as can be heard within the drum beat, it sits in the pocket. Imagine playing that drum beat and counting 123456, 123456, 1234. Doesn't groove well.

    It's fun to analyze how they played with this atypical rhythm and composed an entire song around it's embellishment.

    R.... W....

    @Quinton It's funny how I came back to this song trying to figure this out on my own, and I see your reply haha. Thank you!

    R.... W....

    @Nick The Awesomeish Haha right on! I was hoping someone would find it useful, I really had to rack my brain counting this out lol

    R.... W....

    @Quinton Your efforts are applauded. I totally see it now! It's so crazy that they change to half time in the chorus!! Thanks again :)

    R.... W....

    @Nick The Awesomeish You're welcome and thank you, glad I could be helpful!

  31. L.... P....
