Hold The Fort > Lyrics
‘There is one thing we would like to correct on the panel of Alice Wine at the Progressive Club. It is not accurate to say that she is credited with writing the lyrics to "Keep Your Eyes on the Prize." She is credited with passing the phrase "eyes on the prize" to Guy who then incorporated it into the song. When Guy worked with Mrs. Clark in the Citizenship program on Johns Island, he used songs in the classes. One of the songs was "Keep Your Hand on the Plow, Hold On" which he knew from the Labor Movement.

The first is from English Folk Songs from the Southern Appalachians published in 1917, indicating that Gospel Plow dates from at least the early twentieth century. The second reference is to a 1928 book, American Negro Folk-Songs, which shows an African-American heritage for the original song. Solid lyrics that honor the Lord and present man and God in the proper, biblical light.

For who ever wanted it I love this song and wanted the words.

I love this song, it leads me to know more my Savior. The following week, it debuted at No. 3 on the Hot Christian Songs, after logging in its first full week of sales and streams. In a world of uncertainty and chaos, all we need is faith, love, and hope that thing is going to get better. This gospel song was written by Rev. Cleophus Robinson Jr. and originating on his 1980 album "Consolation".

Lyrics for traditional American folk songs and African-American spirituals are often changed, improvised and traded between songs by different artists and at different performances. This was and is especially true in the call and response of African American religious music. No one artist can be historically credited with "Keep Your Eyes on the Prize." The official audio video of "Hold On to Me" showcasing the single's artwork was released to YouTube on February 26, 2021. On March 11, 2021, Daigle released the music video of the song.

Lyrics

See media help."Keep Your Eyes on the Prize" is a folk song that became influential during the American Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s. It is based on the traditional song, "Gospel Plow," also known as "Hold On," "Keep Your Hand on the Plow," and various permutations thereof. "Hold On to Me" debuted on the Christian Airplay chart at number 25 dated March 6, 2021. The following week, it debuted at No. 3 on the Hot Christian Songs, after logging in its first full week of sales and streams. The song concurrently debuted on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart dated March 13, 2021, at No. 15. "Hold On to Me" is Lauren Daigle's fifth No. 1 song on the US Hot Christian Songs chart.

It is doubtful that Mrs. Wine actually composed the lyrics herself. More likely she had heard the revised refrain and variations on the verses of the older song from the congregation at the praise hall. Odetta used them in her 1960 Carnegie Hall appearance and recording.
