Say a Prayer

bitter and cold as you step forth
strong wind blowing from the north
pull up the collar, dig your feet in
a storm is about to come

lightning and thunder around you now
as you make your break, make your vow
nothing this time will disallow
a storm is about to come

light a candle, say a prayer
don't stop now, you're almost there
freedom of spirit and of the soul
with the vanishing of the storm
