She Is the Light

Under a blanket of darkness Secretly they made their escape Only a single lantern To help them find their way Many years of oppression Broken bones from much abuse Terrorized them everyday They felt they had no other way Suffering in silence At the hands of ones they loved Praying one day the cycle would end God would send a helping hand Than one day it happened She came into their lives Herself she had been a victim But she found the courage to rise No longer would she sit back Placed underneath his thumb She was made to be his equal So she slowly rose above Her destiny it was clear She was meant to help so many To teach them that the way to happiness Was to find peace and love within themselves With this they'd find stability She started on her journey One woman at a time But if you choose to look closely You'll see she's formed a line An angel in her calling Though she was unaware Many lives she will save On her path of love and care
