The clouds wash
across the sky
with no beginning
nor end in sight
and yet the sun
will rise again
high above the darkness
lighting the world
beneath its warm glow
and so it is
with the darkest hour
of my darkest day
when hope is nowhere near
the Son rose again
above this world
of sin and death
for your sake and mine
that his love may light our way
with joy and peace eternal
RISE AGAIN
