lyrics

In my time of darkness in the shadow of the sun
When light itself is eclipsed through all creation
Each winding street is crowded w/ frail fleeting forms
Some in love with death itself but fighting to be reborn

Yet visions of mercy in twilight’s flooding stream
Seem to echo every one in eternity

Still in my time of darkness in trouble unforeseen
The face of woe comes and goes as if in a dream
As the bell at midnight in clamor tolls
The secret tears and phantom fears of each forsaken soul

Yet visions of mercy like apparitions rise
Gleaming like a thousand suns before my open eyes

Till in my time of darkness from the ramparts I see
All souls lost casting off the chains of history
And the iron gate thrown open which ever barred the poor
Stands before us broken to close again no more
