[Verse 1]

In this struggle

Are we dead or alive?

Freedom is not existence

It's how we survive

Shake our grief

Hold on to belief

It can't enslave us forever

There is relief

[Pre-Chorus 1]

No change will be permanent

Our strength enduring bright incandescent

Take a chance before we fall

Pressed against the wall

[Chorus]

And the sun will rise

Dawn will break through blackest night

Distant in its glow

This shall pass, be still and know

[Verse 2]

Where there's heartache

As we search to connect

Even just for a moment

Pretend we're content

There is love

Know that we are one

We are all in this

Together weather the storm

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Look into each other's eyes

Make the connection before it dies

It will all disseminate

As we consummate

[Chorus]

And the sun will rise

Dawn will break through blackest night

Distant in its glow

This shall pass be still and know

[Bridge]

Is it hopeless?

Will the fear take control?

Don't succumb to the numbing

Sting of defeat

Take this hate

Let the bile stagnate

Hoist the head of Goliath

Bask in its grace

[Pre-Chorus 3]

Stars realign in the sky

Glaciers will melt and the oceans rise

Waves will come crashing ashore

But withstand the roar

[Chorus]

And the sun will rise

Dawn will break through blackest night

Distant in its glow

This shall pass be still and know
