Hold It Close To You
It may flicker, but never let it fade away.
Hold it in your heart See it’s light shining brightly Hope is always there
When life seems so grim We the sum of those before Must remain for them
And those yet to come Life’s great longing for itself We must treasure them
And give them a world Where hope and fairness exist Where all are equal
The as-yet-unborn And those that watch over us Make us what we are
We are all as one Part of the human spirit And we all need hope
