Do Not

Do not be afraid of the dark
Even if it rains,
And you have no one to hold
Or anyone to hold on to
Do not be afraid of the dark

Do not embrace the sorrow
Or the “something wicked this way comes
Hold on to your triumphs
Keep your dignity in tack
Do not embrace the sorrow

When the darkness
Blots out the sunrise
Remember the glorious light
Of a new day dawning

And He’s waiting
Waiting
Waiting

2
Return
Again

 

Joseph B. St. John
