|
The trials you now are facing |
|
they are not greater than your will |
|
For there is nothing under heaven |
|
You cannot overcome |
|
See the door that lies before you |
|
And know this too shall pass |
|
The confrontation of your fears |
|
In strength drawn from the past |
|
Where the silent voices whisper |
|
Find the course that is your own |
|
And however great the obstacle |
|
You will never be alone |
|
For I have watched the path of angels |
|
And I have heard the heavens roar |
|
There is strife within the tempest |
|
But there is calm in the eye of the storm |
|
I believe in what I fight for |
|
And I have paid for it with pain |
|
I am here because my contributions |
|
May help turn this fate away |
|
And all who stood by and did nothing |
|
Who are they to criticize? |
|
The sacrifices of others |
|
Our blood has bought their lives |
|
This is the moment of truth |
|
At the point of no return |
|
Place faith in your convictions |
|
As the boundaries start to blur |
|
There is no love untouched by hate |
|
No unity without discord |
|
There is no courage without fear |
|
There is no peace without a war |
|
There is no wisdom without regret |
|
No admiration without scorn |
|
There is strife within the tempest |
|
And there is calm in the eye of the storm |
|
The pages of our history |
|
Are written by the hand |
|
With eyes and ears and prejudice |
|
Too far removed to understand |
|
And so the heroes of the ages past |
|
Are stripped of honesty and love |
|
To make them seem less noble |
|
And hide what we can become |
|
If you find the courage within you |
|
To face the path ahead |
|
It matters not the outcome |
|
If what you will gain instead |
|
Is a heart deepened in the knowing |
|
That experience carves the soul |
|
And the very thing that empties you |
|
Shall surely make you whole |
|
Where the silent voices whisper |
|
Find the course that is your own |
|
And however great the obstacle |
|
You will never be alone |
|
For I have watched the path of angels |
|
And I have heard the heavens roar |
|
There is strife within the tempest |
|
But there is calm in the eye of the storm |
