Lewis Knudsen - Keep Up the Fight Lyrics

There are all kinds of different people
And each one wants to be understood
There are all kinds of different people
And they all live in your neighborhood

O Lord involve me with peace and healing
Not death and destruction as is so often my way
I know that God will bring salvation
To this broken down old house
In His own way

We gotta encourage each other to do right
Or else we're gonna do wrong
We gotta encourage each other
To not give up the fight
Though the battle is long

Well I keep driving past broken down cars
Thinking someone else is gonna help them soon
And I keep driving past broken down souls
Thinking there's nothing I can really do

Well I cannot go on like this
In every room I see
Either someone whose help I need
Or somebody who needs some help from me
Well it's not very safe
And I make all these embarrassing mistakes
But I will do my very best
If you could please show me some grace

We gotta encourage each other to do right
Or else we're gonna do wrong
We gotta encourage each other
To not give up the fight
Though the battle is long

So I've done wrong to you,
And you've done wrong to me, oh but
Who will be the first to cross the line

Who will be the first / who will be the first
Oh let me be the first to cross the line

We gotta encourage each other to do right
Or else we're gonna do wrong
We gotta encourage each other
To not give up the fight
Though the battle is long
