silver stars are softly shining
somewhere safe their light is leading
stop the wars and stop the fighting
let us journey home
are you lost, forlorn, and lonely?
is your courage fading swiftly?
let thy spirit not forsake thee;
home is waiting; come.
through the darkness and the shadows
heedless of the way the wind blows
undaunted by death, unstopped by sorrows
we choose the higher road
candles in the window burning
watch and wait for your returning
walk through night and into morning
don't stop til you're home

silver stars are softly shining
somewhere safe their light is leading
stop the wars and stop the fighting
let us journey home
are you lost, forlorn, and lonely?
is your courage fading swiftly?
let thy spirit not forsake thee;
home is waiting; come.
through the darkness and the shadows
heedless of the way the wind blows
undaunted by death, unstopped by sorrows
we choose the higher road
candles in the window burning
watch and wait for your returning
walk through night and into morning
don't stop til you're home
