Beyond the ashes

In the shadow of the night A silent promise softly came Spirits danced in flicker light Through the whispers of the flame Under stars that watched us grow Molded by the fires of night Through the trials we came to know Tempered by the fire's light Whispers grow to thunder's roar Hearts ablaze, we rise once more Every tear we've (sh)ed, now dries Hope renewed as sorrow dies Whispers grow to thunder's roar Hearts ablaze, we rise once more Every tear we've (sh)ed, now dries Hope renewed as sorrow dies From the fire, we found new life Rising up, we faced the strife In the blaze, our hearts fulfilled You and I, we won't be stilled Echoes of our past, now behind Steadfast as the mountains stand Flames that once encircled us Lift us now to higher ground From the fire, we found new life Rising up, we faced the strife In the blaze, our hearts fulfilled You and I, we won't be stilled From the fire, we found new life Rising up, we faced the strife In the blaze, our hearts fulfilled You and I, we won't be stilled And as the final embers fade In the warmth our hearts have made Forever strong, forever brave In the light, forever saved
