Redemption and Mercy

In the night, in the deep, in the dark;

In the quiet, in the stillness, in the moment

Transcendence arises all around;

Twinkling stars sing as a chorus of voices

The mind searches for redemption;

The heart aches for answers of truth

The dance we live are dreams foretold;

The music ends and fade to black

The silence descends to cover again

Can a soul once lost be retrieved

A spark of light betrays the night

A hope not lost is once more renewed

Reminded again of legends of old

Sometimes the only justice, is mercy
