knock holes in the darkness



carry the light
down the street
across our nation
into the world

knock holes in the darkness
that all may see the light
share the vision
our belief in love

all of us equal
endowed by God
all of us children
neighbors, as one

knock holes in the darkness
to share the light
from the beginning to the end
to the ends of the earth
