Waiting for the Dawn

We whisper in the still.
Lay quiet in the dawn.
Watch for the rising.
For what's to come.

Breath held in silence.
Rendered frozen in place.
Wary eyes focus beyond.
Dew seeps through the seams.

Lying in wait for the coming.
The precise moment that will be.
One chance to take the leap.
Jumping into the unknown.

Fight for me, we hear.
Stand by me and see.
The glory that is to come.
Reaching to every corner.

Weary hearts await.
Doubt quickly flickers.
Numbness setting in.
Will we endure the wait.

Panic slowly finds it's way.
To the minds of those.
Losing the willpower.
The faith to stand upright.

Will we die in this.
State of chaos to come.
Surely there's another way.
To save our lives.

Fight for me, we hear.
Stand by me and see.
The glory that is to come.
Reaching to every corner.

The doubts starts to dissipate.
Like wisps through fog.
Our feet are now wet.
Though our hearts renewed.

Strength is on our side.
Faith stronger then fear.
Peace rests upon the weary.
Leaving no room for hate.

The trumpet is heard.
We pick up arms prepared.
To fight the good fight.
Along side our heavenly father.
