In Trying Times

The rising star so brilliant in the cool of the desert night
Among the valley of a forgotten path where once many fight
Peace is a sound of silence in the minds eye a war never leaves
The wounds and scars shame our past now even the history books hide the truth
The song of death the tears of memory the brave who gave their lives
Voices are heard across the land where spirits not at rest only cries
The ghosts of the darkness still walk in circles within the universe
One song one angel leads the birth of a god to bring the words of faith
When we listen we can hear when we believe we can save
When angels sing they also pray
A newborn child a new path the kings bring gifts of praise to honor our savior in trying times
We have traveled so far to the brightest star the answer now lies
Each song each note each sound stronger and longer
When angels sing let us hear their voices ever so near each verse brings us closer together
In trying times
