We Are The Light

by Siling-La

The world in which we live is broken and twisted
Death and pain are just two outcomes listed
And yet there are the few who choose to shine.

We are not ashamed of who we are
Our brilliant rays shine like a star
We know where our hope is, wherever we are
For that hope lives inside our hearts.

We wave our banner over the cloud
Of despair and grief spinning around
It is our job on Earth to bring heaven down
For our heavenly father who now wears a crown

So be alert, go out, be proud
But acknowledge there is a lion prowling around
With teeth like knives and claws like steel
He never fails to find a meal

But we can resist his fiery arrows
For there is someone who provides for even the sparrows
For the lion, we know is destined to fall
So now the threat is seemingly small

But do not underestimate the power of this beast
For the ignorant are always his feast
Instead go out and spread the Word
Because we are the light in this sinful world.
  
For we are not ashamed to be called Christians.
