Out of anguish and despair,
Hopeless, beyond repair,
A shadow of a man, darkness,
Lingered in the night, moonless.
Restless, years passed by,
Bound, cannot fly,
Memories, lost force,
Affliction clawing, no remorse.
From the abyss, a play of light,
From confusion, a breeze of insight,
From drought, an anointing grace,
From death, a reviving embrace.
An eagle was born, he spread his wings,
A mountain he stood, royal like kings,
A lion, a child, a divine zen,
An angel he walked, among men.
