Hold Fast

Hold fast and don’t lose your nerve,

let the sounds of hope gently sway you to sleep.

When sitting alone in some unknown place,

Think of places you’ve seen

And people you’ve been

And those dreams that you’ve dreamt

Will come true one day

In a blink of an eye or an unusual way.

Don’t be alarmed if you find yourself hoarse,

Crying out for redemption

Or a new path or course.

Because you’ll find yourself one day

In a car, on a train,

On a road or a truck.

On a boat or a  plane.

Heading truly to glory,

To love or to faith,

To the arms of another,

Comfortable, safe.
