Under a Dying Sun

Under a dying sun.


We are a dying people, on a dying world;
We are constantly dying and all we have left is hope.
Under a dying sun, the clouds of doubt are formed
And we head into an unknown future, afraid and alone.


Without doubt we need faith, to journey on for,
Behind us is a memory of all that came before.
We are a God fearing people; some say it is a Godless world.
With God at our side, anything is possible.


The stars have always been with us
And they will be there long after we have gone.
When you are lost in the darkness, you will find what you need.


When the world has been emptied and all nature is lost;
We will realise this land we call our home is only borrowed,
So let us be free of apathy.
