The Promise

Number the stars

I dare you to try

Each one a promise

A symbol of life

Radiance advanced

Through light years it sailed

To a foreigner in a land

The promise prevailed

Fast forward through time

City scape hugs the sky

Two towers give way

Steel-beamed cross still did rise

For in the darkness

The light still did shine

A heavenly country

All pilgrims will find

Before Earth’s creation

Til the end of all time

The promise goes on

So let hope like steam riserise
