Lyrics
Let the weak say I'm strong
Let the poor say I am rich
Let the lost say I'm found
Let the blind say I'm rich
(repeat)
Storms will come your way
Just be still and remember
The Lord is thy rock
And He will come in time
Just when You need Him most
(repeat)
Let the weak say I'm strong
Let the poor say I am rich
Let the lost say I'm found
Let the blind say I'm rich
Wipe your tears from your eyes
Joy will come in the morning
All things work together for your good
God won't let you down
Just keep the faith
And hold your head high
Just keep the faith
And hold your head high
Just keep the faith
And hold your head high
Keep the faith (hold your head high)
Keep the faith (hold your head high)
You just got to trust Him and (hold your head high)
"Listen when you go through trials and tribulations
As you are parsing through the storm,
You got to know that Jesus is in the midst of your storm
You see storms are gonna come in your life
He never said its gonna be easy
But in the midst of the storm you got to learn to fix your eyes on Jesus, because He is your helper.
The Bible says before he formed you He knew You
And His plans for You are Yes and Amen... "
Just keep the faith
And hold your head high

Meaning & Inspiration
“Keep the Faith” centers on steadfast trust in Jesus during trials. Its declarations move from weakness, poverty, loss, and blindness toward strength, provision, restoration, and sight. The recurring call to hold one’s head high gives the song an encouraging focus, while the spoken passage places Jesus in the midst of life’s storms. Rather than denying trouble, the lyric presents faith as confidence that God remains near and dependable.
Several lines closely echo biblical promises. “Joy will come in the morning” recalls Psalm 30:5, and the assurance that all things work together for good reflects Romans 8:28. The description of the Lord as a rock also aligns with Psalm 18:2. Together, these images portray God as refuge, helper, and source of hope when circumstances are difficult. The repeated title phrase becomes a simple confession of endurance: trust rests not in an easy path, but in the character and presence of God.
