The lyrics, ‘Keep on holding on’, encourages Christians, in particular,to persist in their beliefs and to never lose that feeling of expectation for a more favourable future outcome.
Lyrics: Ethan Hulse, Nick Schwarz, Zach Williams Vocals: American Christian rock artist Zachary Stephen Williams (Zach Williams).
Sunday’s Coming.
When your week feels like a beat down, And you can’t tell the night from day, And you’re tired of fighting battles, When all you feel is pain, oh, it’s a heavy weight. There’s hope on the horizon, The cross was not the end, Let joy come in the morning, And, child, lift your head, don’t you give up yet.
Keep on holding on, there’s gonna be a breakthrough, Keep on holding on, don’t stay buried in that grave. If He can roll the stone, He can send the darkness running, It might feel like Friday, but your Sunday’s coming, It might feel like Friday, but your Sunday’s coming,
So let your soul start singing, And dry those tear-stained eyes, There’s a new life and you can breathe in, You’re gonna see the light on the other side.
Keep on holding on, there’s gonna be a breakthrough, Keep on holding on, don’t stay buried in that grave. If He can roll the stone, He can send the darkness running, It might feel like Friday, but your Sunday’s coming, It might feel like Friday, but your Sunday’s coming,
For the mama’s praying for the family, (Your Sunday’s coming,) For the daddy’s struggling to make ends meet, (Your Sunday’s coming,) And if addiction’s bringing you,to your knees, (Your Sunday’s coming,) Oh, if anybody here wants to be set free, (Your Sunday’s coming,)
Keep on holding on, there’s gonna be a breakthrough, Keep on holding on, don’t stay buried in that grave, If He can roll the stone, He can send the darkness running, It might feel like Friday, but your Sunday’s coming, It might feel like Friday, but your Sunday’s coming.
Households across Ireland are bracing themselves for further price increases on Monday next “All Fools’ Day”, April 1st 2024. But the price increases promised for fuel, broadband, mobile phone and television should not be seen as just a practical joke or hoax.
From midnight on April 1st, the cost of petrol and diesel will rise with the price at the pumps rising by an extra 4 cent per litre for petrol, 3 cent per litre for diesel and 1.5 cent for marked gas oil. These increases are a step by the Government to restore excise rates to the levels they were at before a temporary cut was introduced due to the war in Ukraine.
You have two days to fill vehicle tanks, before fuel price hikes take effect.
From April 1st also, customers of Vodafone and Eir will see their bills go up by 7.6 per cent. Customers of Three will see their prices rise by a flat 4.5 per cent. Sky and Virgin Media have not committed to an annual automatic price hikes as yet.
It is no coincidence that all price rises across telecom industry providers, continue to hike their prices by a similar amount and at a similar time each year. However, consumers can save on their broadband and TV bills each year, by switching. Remember, mobile phones can be used to create WIFI hotspots for internet connectivity with most devices, (USB-tethering), while switching to other, cheaper providers.
Also, from April 15th, 2024, the price of certain beers will be hiked by a 6% increase on Diageo products, namely Guinness, Carlsberg and Smithwick’s, which when tax is included, will come to almost a 10% increase.
