In the shadow of sunlight, I stand.
Though it's only a sliver of hope,
when life's darker days get out of hand,
I must recon for somehow to cope.
Like a lone beam that shines on the wall,
in the shadow of sunlight, I stand;
as the nightfall ends its darkest call
for new sunshine of morning to land.
The sea's glistening waves understand
they're the glory that follows the storm.
In the shadow of sunlight, I stand
till my waves of new hopefulness form.
Like a rainbow repaints a dark day
and the new sky obeys its command;
as it washes the rainstorm away-
in the shadow of sunlight, I stand.
