The Light Will Shine


The light will shine. When there is nothing left in which to find joy the light will shine. The light will move you to your dreams. When there seems no way out the light will show the way. When a newborn cries in the arms of its mother there is new light at a new unblemished soul. Thine dreams will always bring hope. When thy own past haunts you. When others deny thy dreams. Whenever there is still hope the light will shine. There is destruction all around. People hurt others their judgement of right and wrong is gone. The light provides a way for all to learn what is right. The earth is crying out. Why have thine inhabitants scared thee so. There seems no way to come back from this lo. Long behold the light will shine. When a young child sees the wonders of the earth. When there is, but one who gives to thy one in need. The light will shine. When an old man tends thy field of grass he brings the energy to the tired. When a young couple gives what they have to restore what was lost. The light will shine. Wherever there is someone who still stands for what is right the light will shine. Whenever someone rights what was wronged the light will shine. The darkness surrounds may surround thee, but the light can never be vanquished. The light will always shine brightly whenever someone says any sign of faith, hope, and love.
