Kingdom of Light by Shannon Jaime

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A.N.: This is a song I composed when I was a freshman in choir--a Christmas song, to be more exact. As such, it is very special to me, and I only hope that the message it conveys will move your minds and hearts.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Oh, the sky is shadow,
And the clouds gray:
A bleak storm of silver,
Ever so dreary;
Oh, their hearts are heavy,
Dreadfully weary,
Wandering in darkness,
Lost in wintry day.

Oh, they seek the dream,
Illusion of the golden light:
The kingdom of sunbeams,
Heaven’s glory so bright;

Oh, they tread the barren terrain
Through winds of sleet and ice,
Shivering in coldness of frozen rain
Until they find their Lord, Jesus Christ.

Oh, their eyes are searching
Through haze of white,
For the city of rainbows,
Sweet chiming of bells:
Yes! The world of kindness,
Of vivid pastels,
Where souls are forgiven
To bless the true contrite.

Oh, they seek the dream,
Illusion of the golden light:
The kingdom of sunbeams,
Heaven’s glory so bright;

Oh, they tread the barren terrain
Through winds of sleet and ice,
Shivering in coldness of frozen rain
Until they find their Lord, Jesus Christ.

Oh, souls seek the golden dream,
Kingdom of the shining light,
Until they uncover the city of rainbows,
Until they find the Lord, Jesus Christ,
Until they find the Lord, Jesus Christ.
