I pick up by the handful
The somber heap at my feet
Eyes closed to see the hopeful
Trusting my deepest instinct
I pick up by the handfull
The somber heap at my feet
Eyes closed to see the hopeful
Trusting my deepest instinct
But I go on
Dawning light
Task of hope
At last dare
To raise my eyes
I saw the ship in the stars
Strong of glittering fleet
Bringing light to the new born
I pick up by the handful
The somber heap at my feet
Eyes closed to see the hopeful
Trusting my deepest instinct
At last dare to raise my eyes
I saw the ship in the stars
Strong of glittering fleet
Bringing light to the new born
In a dawn light
Task of hope
These are stars
