The Sun Will Rise

The Sun Will Rise

The sun will rise again tomorrow morning

And the moon will take his nightly course

The Earth will keep on turning on its axis

And maintain its gravitational force

The days and months will go on passing

And the year will tread its normal way

Through all its seasons, each in turn

Until we’re out of this one day

Mothers will bring their babies into the world

And young children will outgrow their clothes

We shall all keep growing older

Until our bodies are free of worldly woes

Soon this crisis will all be over

As they say “This too shall pass”

We will carry on until our normal time

And our bodies return to elemental mass
