Dark Days

Today the sun will shine in the usual way.
Clouds will obscure its face, but they will dissipate.
The sky will soon be blue; why fret about the gray?...
You need not fear the tempest's wrath, its blast irate.

Storm clouds will come and go;
Troubles will fade, you know.
Look for the hidden rays,
Even on the dark days.

The looking glass deceives; there's an image unseen,
A finished work, a glory yet to be revealed.
When the fat years lead to an era frail and lean,
Let seeds of hope spring forth; let faith its harvest yield.

Storm clouds will come and go;
Troubles will fade, you know.
Look for the hidden rays,
Even on the dark days.

It is easier said than done, I know;
Be daring; do it anyway.
Someday, in a resurgent afterglow,
You'll glide into an endless day.

Stormclouds will come and go;
Troubles will fade, you know.
Look for the hidden rays,
Even on the dark days.
