In The Shadow of Sunlight
I sat with the lord of darkness
singing with the shadows of fear
when I feel sunlight's caress
as time stops, when you appear
I had travelled many a harbour
always the darkness was there
sunlight shadows screaming more
there was no need for light to share
looking for an anchor in my destiny
against life's swollen rivers
spending time to look and see
for an essence that love delivers
I looked upstream to the waterfall
hoping for a warm spirit to find
but always finding just an icy wall
so continue on then sailing blind
and so onwards I am stumbling
determined to make the most of life
blind and deaf my spirit crumbling
until your light eases my strife
finding the anchor, in my destiny
against life's swollen rivers
it was your time to look and see
and show me what love delivers
