The shortest day throughout the year Should leave us with but little cheer Yet as the day turns into night A hope lies with its dimming light A hope unbroke through eons past Tho doubt it often would amass In hearts and spirits of long last Ancestors who witnessed it's glow For they, who didn't truly know The secrets of the star that hides That, as the light that shines in thee The sun lives on, eternally No longer will the Gods arise For what's eternal never dies We leave behind all fear and fright In that long, cold, dark winter's night And all that's left for use to do Is wait for day, to break on through And turn our faces to the sun Knowing one day we'll all be one

Of Solstice Past
The shortest day throughout the year Should leave us with but little cheer Yet as the day turns into night A hope lies with its dimming light A hope unbroke through eons past Tho doubt it often would amass In hearts and spirits of long last Ancestors who witnessed it's glow For they, who didn't truly know The secrets of the star that hides That, as the light that shines in thee The sun lives on, eternally No longer will the Gods arise For what's eternal never dies We leave behind all fear and fright In that long, cold, dark winter's night And all that's left for use to do Is wait for day, to break on through And turn our faces to the sun Knowing one day we'll all be one
