My Own

As I head out into the unknown,
Scared and unable to foresee,
Love and faith will carry me through my own.

I will not stand in this fight alone.
How could this have happened to me?
As I head out into the unknown.

My scars I will eventually condone,
This battle will not end terribly,
Love and faith will carry me through my own.

My victory gratefully shown,
Strong I shall continue to be.
As I head out into the unknown.

My enemy has been overthrown, 
Undefeated and brought to my knee,
Love and faith will carry through my own.

A flag has flown,
Victory, victory upon the black sea, 
As I head out into the unknown,
Love and faith will carry me through my own.
