A folk-style song lyric, longing or justice in an unjust world...

————

Dark world spins around us

Hatred fills the land

People denied basic human rights

Bigotry and fear reign

Is the end at hand?

Burning torches blaze against the night

 

Though things seem their darkest

Justice will hold sway

And the guilty will pay for their crimes

There will come a reckoning

Truth shall find its way

And all wrongs will be made just

In time

 

While hope may be fleeting

Freedom’s light grows dim

Evil casts its shadow ‘cross our minds

Virtue may yet triumph

Goodness can still win

If we will just stand and do what’s right

 

Lift your eyes up onward

Look toward a new day

Trust that fate and principle align

There will come a reckoning

Truth shall find its way

And all wrongs will be made just 

In time

 

There will come a reckoning

Truth shall find its way

And all wrongs will be made just

In time
