Supplication

When shall this darkness yield to the sun's light?
When shall my eyes see the day dry and bright?
My heart is drowning in a sea of fright
Where I paddle but no end is in sight.
Grant me succour,Oh! Spirits full of might,
Grant me strength to paddle and row aright,
Lend a helping hand in this lonely fight
To conquer, prevail and embrace delight
As beams of light overwhelm this dark night.
