DAWN
Out of the dark, the light! 0 Hearts, remember The eternal truth God gives us as a sign That after the dark, as glowing as an ember, Deep at the core of life, a light will shine: The light of hope, after the bitter weeping; The light of peace, after the lengthened pain. The Christian heart held close within God's keeping Will find the dark skies brightening again.
The risen Christ is proof of light's returning; The risen Christ is symbol of the dawn. 0 you who have been striving, longing, yearning To catch the light ahead, move out, move on. You will find him there among the springtime flowers, Among the clean winds of a new-born day. He is the lamp for all our future hours; He is the light to guide us on our way.
