As dusk settles into her short lived throne
Night waits in the sky ready to cover the world,
In her utter darkness
The sun fights for those last rays
Clinging onto the orb
Trying to hold onto his lofty reign
But alas night descendeth on the Earth
His shroud covering the heavens
The stars puncture through the inky blackness
The moon rises and gives light to all that prowl
Night reigns with a mighty fist and lingers almost endlessly
Every little shadow is hers
Every cave she claims
As the sun struggles into the sky once again
Helios driving his fiery chariot
Night goes willingly knowing she has left her mark upon this globe
For night has always been...
But always, always, always there is a shimmer of hope in our hearts
And in the world there shines the population with life so vital and
So glorious that night can never truly win
Once night ruled the sky and the very air we breath
with a cold iron first
******* all that was life from the world
But the light has come and with him comes his
Resonating, clear hope into the world and
Into the souls of the people
Light, life. and hope intertwined

As dusk settles into her short lived throne
Night waits in the sky ready to cover the world,
In her utter darkness
The sun fights for those last rays
Clinging onto the orb
Trying to hold onto his lofty reign
But alas night descendeth on the Earth
His shroud covering the heavens
The stars puncture through the inky blackness
The moon rises and gives light to all that prowl
Night reigns with a mighty fist and lingers almost endlessly
Every little shadow is hers

As the sun struggles into the sky once again

Night goes willingly knowing she has left her mark upon this globe
For night has always been...
But always, always, always there is a shimmer of hope in our hearts
And in the world there shines the population with life so vital and
So glorious that night can never truly win
Once night ruled the sky and the very air we breath
with a cold iron first
******* all that was life from the world
But the light has come and with him comes his
Resonating, clear hope into the world and
Into the souls of the people
Light, life. and hope intertwined
