Just when I thought the world could not get any darker...
Just when I thought that the kiss of death had pressed its full lips on us all
Just when I thought evil had consumed the earth and made it so convincingly beautiful,
We would have all fallen for it.

Just when I had lost the only thing that made me keep going
The only thing that kept me alive

I was proved wrong.

A trickle, a stream, a river, an ocean
The light flooded my eyes
I was almost blinded by the absolute joy
The absolute honesty of it all.

A trickle, a stream, a river, an ocean
I had not felt this in a long time.
This faith in humanity has come and inundated
My heart, my soul, my mind, and whole being

A trickle, a stream, a river, an ocean
It was so simple
It was so kind
Could I really explode over a quivering flame?

I saw what you did.
A candle lit by you
The world is not filled with darkness.
You proved me wrong.

Her look of gratitude,
As you handed her the book.
I saw hope in You!

This trickle, this stream, this river...
The ocean of hope lives in humanity
Just when I thought the world would end...

And I thank God everyday for simple kindness...
I thank God for this torrent of hope
This kiss of faith.
You

This world is not dark for we have
Light
