Light In The Darkness - Margaret Becker

Once upon a moonless night

I dreamed my world was one small room

A thousand books of stories told

All were black but one was gold

I took the Book from off the shelf

And held it to my frozen self

A war within my spirit raged

Through drops of salt on every page

And my body was breaking

For the words He was saying

Be a light in the darkness

Be a heart to the heartless

When the world’s lost its meaning

Be the one who will still go on believing

Then once upon a windless night

Another dream in black and white

A gentle man of flesh and bone

He says this world is not our home

And my body was breaking

For the words He was saying

Though I was only dreaming

His words kept burning me

Over and over and over again

REPEAT CHORUS
