Footprints line the harshest ground; Signs that life can spread and grow, No matter what might bring it low. The bells chime once, and no one makes a sound. A nations stands together for a day, Joined as one beneath a single name; How odd it is to see the world this way. Sorrow helps us realise we’re the same. He took their pain and turned it into joy, Chose sacrifice to show them what was wrong; He made a mark that time cannot destroy, And taught the people how to sing love’s song. I hope we haven’t found his path too late; Love comes to us more naturally than hate.
