In Its Coffers

The day and its glory,
Everywhere is bright and clear,
New pursuit and a new story,
Opportunity to scale obstacles that dare.

Everywhere is  bright and clear,
The night has stepped aside,
Opportunity to scale obstacles that dare, 
Harness potential on the inside.

The night has stepped aside, 
A new day has opened its door,
Harness potential on the inside,
Life can give what’s desired and much more.

A new day has opened its door,
The night watchers stand behind,
Life can give what’s desired and much more,
Persistence can bring all that we find.

The night watchers stand behind,
A new day has opened its door,
Persistence can bring all that we find,
Life can give what’s desired and much more.
