The Rebirth
The Rebirth
David Alan Garrick
1993
A child is born today
With feelings not expressed
It will shine with every sun
And with laughter it is blessed
The frame of God’s creation
With land and air and sea
It’s purity to cherish
It’s destruction a tragedy
Through the tests of man’s abundance
And the scheme of better things
Confusion soon takes over
All humanity begins to bleed
An illusion of serenity
For all the world to see
The truth that lies beneath
Will be witnessed beyond the eaves
A glow from deep within
An anger unbelieved
This final generation
Will never pass this grief
A child is born today
With feelings not expressed
It will shine with every sun
And with peace it will be blessed
