Sunrise

Many folk I know feel the never ending night is near. Here is something to lift your spirits if you are feeling the same. Be of good hope.

Though the night be black and angry
And the battle is drawing near
Do not fear the coming darkness
For the dawn will still appear.

No terror can prevent it
No fire cause it to slow
The night must come upon us
But the sunrise always shows.

Though the night may not be restful
The day will follow soon.
And our weary eyes behold it
As it relieves the weary moon.

So if your heart is heavy
And your spirits only fall
Turn your eyes to the horizon
The Dawn will stand up tall.
