Soldiers of the Light

Peace seems to be a fairytale that we all want to come true.
My brothers & sisters, may the Goddess protect you.
Especially, those who’ve seen War’s bloody sights.
I pray that you’ll be safe on those hopeless nights. 
We cannot end violence, if the world is run by madmen.
We cannot feel safe until we catch the monster in his den.

Whenever you feel lost…
Look up at the star that guided the wise men to a manger. 
Arch angels will fight…
By your side each night when you’re in danger.
May your courage & strength make your enemies cower.
If your soul turns cold, let my words ignite your power.

May every nightmare be banished from your memory.
I pray that you’ll come home to the love of your family.
May you wake every morning with a smile.
May the moonlight guide you when you walk that final mile.
