Light the Love Light
Now that the sun is set
The sky is cold and gray,
Should I for a bit rest?
I have come a long way!
The night is grim and still,
The bare trees stand at bay,
And there sits a dark hill –
We wait the break of day.
Oh, I am lost and worn
Yet I must not here stay,
Lug my load and move on
If love just light my way.
The burden of my woe,
Along the thorn-strewn road,
Help me find, where I go,
Kindred souls to unload!
