A New Light Is Born

Looking around, it sometimes seems so hopeless
Violence and war, suffering and more, each way that you turn
Yet is it not true that life is for the learning
And from the depths of darkness, a new light is born

If only we'd see all the love amidst the chaos
People who care, joys that we share, peace that abounds,
Then we would know, in truth it's not so hopeless
Each time we love another, a new light is born

It's time to break free from the rhetoric of doomsday
If we understand our life is in our hands, it's up to us
We shape our world, it's us who makes the difference
If we change the world gets better and a new light is born
