Anthem

I'm gettin' near the end of my life, child I've seen the sunrise many a time I've seen darkness spread across the land, child I've seen the full moon in it's glory shine Well I've seen goodness and I've seen bad I've been happy and I've been sad I've seen death and I've seen birth I've felt self-pity and I've felt self-worth I've felt joy and I've felt sorrow I've been down but held on 'till tomorrow I've been sky high before a fall I've felt love, and I've felt nothing at all Try to see clearly in the daylight Let yourself feel at night It's about the love you bring to the world, child And what you do each day to set things right I am passing the torch to you, child Let it burn bright as long as you can Fan the embers of love in the darkness, child Let it shine all over the land Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine Let it shine all over the land Well, it's time for you to take on the world, child Just stay true to what you feel And with every year that passes child You'll hear more souls cryin' out to be healed Well you've seen goodness and you've seen bad You've been happy and you've been sad You've seen death and you've seen birth You've felt self-pity and you've felt self-worth You've felt joy and you've felt sorrow You've been down but held on 'till tomorrow You've been sky high before a fall You've felt love, and you've felt nothing at all Try to see clearly in the daylight Let yourself feel at night It's about the love you bring to the world, child And what you do each day to set things right I am passing the torch to you, child Let it burn bright as long as you can Fan the embers of love in the darkness, child Let it shine all over the land Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine Let it shine all over the land
