Darkness and Fire

Ruth Garver 1977 (United States)

Troubled times will find us
For we live in a world of darkness
A world where nothing seems
To want light and happiness

But when true love find each other
A light is born
A light to chase darkness away

Within this light a fire burns
A fire to torch any troubles
That may come it’s way

This is the love we share
A love true and pure
One not born of this world
But predestined to find each other
