in these uncertain times
when we traverse through
the valleys of terror and tears

when salty waves
of desolation crash upon us
and when the weight of the universe

pulls on the strings of our hearts
trying to anchor us
in a wide moor of misery

we will not tarry in the sinister dark
or pitch our tents
between the tribulations

we will with a song and a verse
conquer together our tears and difficulties
thereby rising higher than the eagles

– we will cast aside all fear and doubt
dear hope with love and faith
now carry us over the sinister dark
