Though the earth turned away
Darker was the view
Barren where the branches
The light was faithful true
All throughout the season
Through the frozen chill
Empty was the harvest
The light was shining still
Roots within the deep
Warmed through darkest night
Stirred the inner core
A turning to the light
In the time ordained
Hope within the view
Consent unto Creator
The light comes shining through
When all is aligned
A path of joys delight
With burst of colors fruit
How beautiful the light
