Set flame to this cold world
taking care to warm and not burn
without scorching the people of rock
or rotting their dreams with fire
Give light to those wrapped in darkness
to the blind, to those without sight
Lend them hands against chains
that coil and pull them into cellars
Call the witnesses to the nations
as understanding becomes scarce
Bid men and women, age and youth
to listen once for hope
