Darkness To Son

Step out of the darkness 
And into the Son... 
Be brave
Be wise 
Be strong
Be broken of ties 
Be courageous
Be steady
Be set free...
Be finally won... 

Saved from damnation
Redeemed from sin
Why wallow
When you can sing?
Why weep 
When all is not lost
Paid in blood 
Paid in full
Our cost
Once upon a cross

Whisper in the darkness
Silently speaks
Of better days
On horizon it breaks
And light kisses it all goodbye
No amount of darkness
Can hide a single spark
Have you made a mark?

Here's my hope
Here's my plea
Here's my wish
All I pray for you to be

One day 
Dear one 
You will see.
The might that lies within
Made to be seen
Be victorious in all
Never again fall
Forget where you have been
Even if evil men
Approach to kill 
Stand and defend

Don't be dragged asunder
Don't fall victim to murder
Don't be buried under


The you that you 
Are destined to be
Is superior than what you
Claim to see

Stand up
Dust yourself off

Stand strong
Its finally over

Stand proud
NEVER  back down

You are greater than 
The opposing masses
Be a fighter
Be a warrior
Be a soldier

Be bright 
Be bolder
FIGHT and defend!
Stand tall

You are stronger 
Than all
