We stand on the shore of the sea
Fearsome
Dark above, dark below
We hesitate
As if
We have a choice
As if
We could remain
As if
We could return
We know w cannot
We cannot wait
For the sea to split
We cannot wait
For the way
to offer us an
easy passage
We must go
Into the sea
We must
Learn to swim
To dive
Into the depths
And rise up
With hope
With fear
Filling
Our throats
With raging song
Sing a new
Song
Together
We can
We will
Reach the other side
